In the past, there was sense of skepticism about the quality of addiction treatment and behavioral health services, largely resulting from the rise of expensive addiction treatment and behavioral health chains. Some providers focus exclusively on producing billable procedures, rather than being concerned about successful patient outcomes. When providers focus on only money, often the results are higher costs with more errors occurring. Recent moves by corporate giants in buying up smaller facilities comes at the expense of successful patient outcomes.
Under the fee for services payments, health providers are continuing to provide more expensive services in order to grow revenues.
The current market oriented approach encourages duplication of expensive high revenue procedures. Today, insurance company reimbursement payments are shifting accountability to providers for fully funding behavioral health and addiction treatment disease categories. Patient care is receiving rising pressure from government and third party payors for accountability and cost management by providers’.
Patient care quality remains a critical ingredient in successfully marketing addiction treatment and behavioral health services.
