Background:

Managed care significantly impacts mental health care delivery and psychiatric practice through cost-effectiveness measures, case reviews, and treatment guidelines.
Academic psychiatry plays a crucial role in training future psychiatrists and influencing their perspectives on managed care.
The integration of managed care principles into psychiatric practice necessitates understanding the evolving attitudes within academic institutions.

Purpose of the Study:

To assess the evolving attitudes of academic psychiatry departments toward managed care.
To identify trends in the acceptance and perceived importance of managed care within medical school psychiatry departments.

Main Methods:

Two distinct surveys were administered to chairs of 125 medical school departments of psychiatry.
Data were collected during two separate periods: 1989-1990 and 1991-1992.
Comparative analysis of survey responses over time was performed.

Main Results:

The surveys indicate a discernible trend towards greater acceptance of managed care principles among academic psychiatry leaders.
A growing recognition of the usefulness and importance of managed care was observed between the two survey periods.
These findings suggest a shift in the perception of managed care within academic psychiatry.

Conclusions:

Academic psychiatry departments show an increasing inclination to accept and integrate managed care.
The findings highlight a significant attitudinal shift in response to the growing influence of managed care in mental health.
Further research may explore the long-term implications of this trend on psychiatric training and practice.
