Reply To: need for mental health facilities in our community

Quark2 – I see actual bills and statements from doctors. Until a patient is stabilized and the right combination of medications

is figured out, the patient has to come quite frequently – often weekly. Psychiatrists DO charge $500 a visit. Often the patient needs to see a therapist, too. This is an additional expense. Believe me, $500 a week is often a low-ball number.
