Managed Care in Europe

  • Chapter
Manage or Perish?

Abstract

Data on mental health policies in European countries are not readily retrievable and those that we have been able to put together are, in fact, outdated because the events of the last five years are essentially absent from the literature. We have decided, however, to publish the data available in the literature, even if incomplete, as they provide a frame of reference for the different articles included in this book. We apologize for any possible errors or inconsistencies.
