Acute Psychiatric Emergency Care
Overcrowding of ED with psychiatric patients Symptom or Problem Root causes Availability of psychiatrists and other BH personnel Availability of a network of options for psych disposition Relationship with county mental health Regional interpretation of 5150 regulations
Root Causes Relationship with local police and ambulance service Reduction in inpatient beds Desire to divert psychiatric patients based on historical carve out philosophy Anywhere but here
Prevalence of Mental Health Issues 1 in 4 adults experience mental illness in a given year 1 in 17 experience a severe mental illness such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depression 20% of youth ages 13-18 experience a severe mental disorder in a given year 13% of 8-15 year olds experience mental disorders
Prevalence Average wait times for patients awaiting a psych bed in CA is 15 hours and can be days Suicide is the 10 th leading cause of death in the U.S. and the 3 rd leading cause of transitional age youth 15-24 years Emergency Medicine International found that the financial impact of psychiatric boarding costs EDs $2,264/patient and wait 3.2 times longer than non psychiatric patients-2012
Regulatory Changes AB232 ACA Mental Health Parity Accountable Care Organizations Population Management AB1300 The Joint Commission All lead to increasing demand for behavioral health resources, which will continue far into the future
Defining the Problem Presentation of psychiatric patients to non psychiatric EDs has been occurring for decades Issue has increased with Mental health parity, ACA reform, increased regulations and ambiguity about the regulations As beds have declined, population has increased, and covered lives have increased
Declining Psychiatric Resources in CA
Declining Psychiatric Resources in CA
Adult Inpatient Psychiatric Beds In CA 26 counties have NO inpatient psychiatric services OF ANY KIND.
Child/Adolescent Psych Beds In CA Child beds and adolescent beds are not interchangeable. A hospital may have a dozen adolescent beds, but zero child beds. There is no state definition regarding age ranges for child vs. adolescent beds. The definitions are hospitalspecific, i.e., one facility may consider adolescent to mean ages 11 to 17, while another may consider it to be 12-17. However, because child and adolescent together are a single-license category, OSHPD data does not reflect differences between them.
