How do health insurance regulations affect the care of persons with
mental illness? And how do such persons, in turn, affect the
economy through lost productivity, reduced labor supply, and
deviant behavior at the workplace? In "Economics and Mental
Health," Richard G. Frank and Willard G. Manning, Jr., bring
together a distinguished group of health care economists to explore
the new and rapidly growing field of mental health economics.
The authors begin by discussing the issue of care for severely
mentally ill patients as it is influenced by differing modes of
reimbursement. They then offer labor market analyses that shed
light on the economic costs of mental illness. They analyze the
interaction of health insurance and the demand for mental health
care. And they present case studies that outline experimental
systems of delivering health care.
