| 摘要 | This article reports on trends in disparities in mental health care by use of an improved method that applies the Institute of Medicine (IOM) definition of racial-ethnic disparities. Data from the 2000-2001 and 2003-2004 Medical Expenditure Panel Surveys were used to estimate trends in two global measures of racial-ethnic disparities in mental health care: (1) having any mental health visit, and (2) total mental health care expenditure in the past year. Disparities between African Americans, Hispanics, and white Americans were examined by applying a new methodology based on the IOM definition of racial disparity that adjusts for health status and allows for mediation of racial-ethnic disparities through socioeconomic factors. Results found by use of this measure show that the mental health care system continues to provide less care to persons in African American and Hispanic minority groups than to whites, suggesting the need for policy initiatives to improve services for these minority groups. |
