"The Military Health System (MHS) aims to improve the health of all U.S. military personnel, provide the highest quality of care possible, maintain low per capita health care costs, and support overall military readiness. High-quality, evidence-based behavioral health treatment is central to individual well-being and the overall health of the force. However, there has been little research to date on the behavioral health care that National Guard and reserve personnel-collectively known as the reserve component (RC)-receive from the MHS. The full-time personnel in the U.S. military's active component (AC) overwhelmingly receive behavioral health care in military treatment facilities and generally from behavioral health specialty providers, RC personnel rely much more heavily on private-sector contracted care (also referred to as purchased care) and primary care providers. MHS administrative data indicate that RC personnel are less likely to receive recommended treatment for PTSD, depression, and substance use disorders. Likewise, RC personnel who live in areas that are remote from a military treatment facility are less likely than who do not to receive recommended treatment for these conditions. These findings, which focus on behavioral health care access and quality, highlight pathways to improvement for the MHS as part of its ongoing transition to a more centralized model for delivering and overseeing health care across the force."--Publisher's description.
