The Brunner/Mazel Mental Health Practice Under Managed Care Series
addresses the major developments and changes resulting from the
introduction of managed care in health care delivery. Volumes in
the series enable mental health professionals to provide effective
therapy to their patients while conducting and maintaining a
successful practice. The series is under general editorial
direction of S. Richard Sauber, Ph.D.
The various ramifications of depression have been known for some
time; these include job loss, the breakup of marriage, even
suicide. The ramifications of managed care on treatment are only
now becoming understood. And mental health professionals find
themselves caught in between -- having to treat a longstanding
illness in a set amount of time.
Treatment of Depression in Managed Care integrates short-term
therapy treatment of depression with the guidelines set out by
managed care -- laying the foundation for effective therapeutic
intervention in their presentation of assessment, diagnosis,
treatment options, distinct populations, and special problems. The
integrative approach facilitates flexibility, certainly vital to
all mental health practitioners.
The combined experience of Drs. Mays and Croake includes legal,
academic, and psychological health care delivery across a variety
of settings, as well as an extensive managed care background. Given
the status of depression as a common and extremely complicated
problem, the step-by-step analysis provided by Treatment of
Depression in Managed Care is relevant to mental health
practitioners at every level, as well as to health plan
administrators and policy makers.
