Sources: Published and unpublished inventory data from the Survey and Analysis
Branch, Division of State and Community Systems Development, Center for Mental
Health Services. Sums of percentages or rates for institution types might not
equal 100 percent or the overall rate because of rounding.
1 The population used in the calculation of these rates is the January 1
civilian population of the United States for each year through 1998. The rates
for 2000 and 2002 are based on the July 1 civilian population.
2 Some 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.
3 Includes Department of Veterans Affairs (formerly Veterans Administration)
neuropsychiatric hospitals, VA general hospital psychiatric services, and VA psychiatric
outpatient clinics.
4 Includes freestanding psychiatric outpatient
clinics, partial care organizations, and multiservice mental health organizations.
Multiservice mental health organizations were redefined in 1984.
5
The data for 1994 include residential supportive additions that were excluded
in previous years. This is not material except for the category “all other
organizations.”
