reportActive / Technical Report | Accesssion Number: AD1147467 | Open PDF

Abstract:

This appendix accompanies the RAND report Behavioral Health Care for National Guard and Reserve Service Members, available at www.rand.org/t/RRA421-1. That report explores the quality of behavioral health care for National Guard and reserve service members with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and substance use disorder (SUD) with a focus on identifying differences between these reserve-component (RC) service members and their counterparts in the active component (AC). It also identifies variations in care between reserve component service members who live in areas that are remote from behavioral health care at military treatment facilities and those who are not. The findings and recommendations are intended to support policy- and decision making to help meet the behavioral health care needs of reserve-component service members.
