Let’s Start Working on Success in Tomorrow’s Business Environment
03/13/2023
Our field’s future success will depend in part on how well we compete with other healthcare specialties for funding. This may seem odd until one remembers we are no longer a separately funded field.

Expand the Behavioral Health Field Beyond Its Medicalized Boundaries
12/11/2023

Employers Can Transform Healthcare with Key Funding Changes
10/17/2022
Employers have major influence over the direction of American healthcare. They should consider letting the dominos fall by consolidating some employee health benefits as a step to changing where and how behavioral care is delivered.

Valuable Behavioral Model Attracts and Activates Consumers
06/12/2023
Our field must do a better job of attracting consumers to use our services. Simplifying the logistics of accessing care would help, but people also need basic help understanding their problems and the solutions available.

New Products Can Help Our Field, But Be Wary of Market Forces

Executive Intervention Needed to Ensure Behavioral Healthcare’s Quality
