California Behavioral Health Infrastructure Gaps
Investment in health infrastructure is a top priority in California, where a recent state proposition has funded initiatives to expand mental health and substance use disorder services. PHS served as a partner to Advocates for Human Potential and California Department of Health Care Services to undertake a gap analysis for identifying opportunities to bolster the behavioral health continuum of care. This included defining, gathering, modeling, and visualizing more than 40 geographic and population health indicators. Our analytic tools are helping changemakers to achieve ambitious goals of greater health equity.
