As the U.S. continues to face a behavioral health provider shortage, employers are feeling frustrated that they can’t do more to help employees.
According to a survey by the National Alliance of Healthcare Purchaser Coalitions and the HR Policy Association, just one-third of employers were satisfied with access to behavioral health services through their network. Thirty-one percent of employers were disappointed at the efforts being made to address gaps in access, and 66% did not feel that their behavioral health directories truly reflected what was available to employees.
