HOW DID PHYSICAL AND
MENTAL HEALTH BECOME
SEPARATED?
Coastal Behavioral Healthcare
HISTORY
1950 – 1960: Most people with mental illness
were living in asylums.
In the 60s: Due to John F. Kennedy and advances
in medical thinking, changed from
institutional care to community based
system.
1980 – 1990: Number of people living in taxfunded institutions was reduced by 50%.
Today: Approximately one-fifth of the 1950s
number reside in institutional care.

PROMISES MADE AND
PROMISES BROKEN
Money was intended to follow consumers into
community programs. This didn’t happen.
Employer paid insurance had no reason to pick up
the bill. Most didn’t.
Operating two systems: state and community. Never
had enough money to fund both.
Community based mental health system has always
been underfunded.

• SENIOR LEADERSHIP INVOLVEMENT IS CRITICAL
• SET GOALS … DEVELOP A ROAD MAP
• FORCE INTEGRATION AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY
• BROAD BASE HOLISTIC CARE … NO SILOS
• HIRE AT LEAST ONE EXPERT IN PRIMARY CARE
• COST OF PROVIDING PRIMARY CARE IS MORE
EXPENSIVE THAN THAT OF MENTAL HEALTH CARE
Coastal Behavioral Healthcare
• WORK ON SUSTAINABILITY IMMEDIATELY … YEAR ONE
• FOSTER PARTNERSHIPS … CAN INCREASE OFFERINGS
WITH LITTLE COST
• EDUCATING AND ASSISTING PATIENTS IN MANAGING
THEIR HEALTH CARE IS VITALLY IMPORTANT. PROVIDING
THE SAME ASSISTANCE TO THEIR CARE GIVERS IS
ESSENTIAL!
• ELECTRONIC HEALTH INFORMATION RECORDS ARE
GREAT! PAPER CHARTS ARE NOT!
