Mental Health Access for Young Children : Findings from MC3, a Statewide Consultation Program for Primary Care - 27/09/24
Résumé |
Behavioral health conditions in young children are under-recognized and undertreated. The lack of child psychiatrists makes consultation with primary care providers (PCPs) a critical part of their health care. Of the 973 consultations to the Michigan Clinical Consultation & Care program for children 6 years and below, over half were already on at least 1 medication, and just under half were not engaged in psychotherapy.
