Collaborative care model promotes justice and equity

The private practice of psychiatry is in slow decline, and collaborative care will be its replacement. This is an inevitable result of the reality that there are too few psychiatrists being trained to cover the psychiatric needs of a growing population; increased rates of depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders across the population; and reduced stigma, which previously served as a barrier to seeking treatment. The Collaborative Care Model (CoCM) is a strategy to bring high-quality treatment to the greatest number of patients and is the more ethical approach to resource allocation. (author abstract)
