Access to care for youth in a state mental health system: a simulated patient approach.
The researchers examined access to psychiatric care for adolescents with depression in outpatient specialty clinics within a state mental health system, using a simulated patient approach. They concluded that access to psychiatric care for youth with depression was variable in a state system. State-sponsored trainings on strategies to reduce wait times appear to improve care access.
