Removing Financial Barriers to MHSUD Services

With support from the National Institute for Health Care Reform, CHIR researchers are conducting qualitative research to examine the effectiveness of various efforts to improve MHSUD treatment access. This research will be published in a series of five reports, each of which will focus on a unique domain of MHSUD access. As of September 2025, CHIR researchers have published three of five reports. The first focuses on mitigating BH workforce shortages, the second explores ways to expand BH system capacity, and the third examines innovative solutions to expand access to care (the first and second reports are available through the menu on the left hand side).

The fourth report in this project will explore financial barriers to MHSUD services.
