Sources: Published and unpublished inventory data from the Survey and Analysis
Branch, Division of State and Community Systems Development, Center for Mental
Health Services.
1Some organizations were reclassified as a result
of changes in reporting procedures and definitions. For 1979–80, comparable
data were not available for certain organization types and data for either an
earlier or a later period were substituted. These factors influence the comparability
of 1980–98 data with those of earlier years.
2 Includes Department of Veterans Affairs (formerly Veterans Administration)
neuropsychiatric hospitals, VA general hospital psychiatric services, and VA psychiatric
outpatient clinics.
3 Includes freestanding psychiatric outpatient clinics, partial care
organizations, and multiservice mental health organizations. Multiservice mental
health organizations were redefined in 1984.
4 The survey format was changed in 1994 and partial care is now included
with outpatient care, and together are called “less than 24-hour care.”
