We've made progress in people's attitudes toward getting mental health treatment or seeking it for their loved ones, says Russ Newman, PhD, JD, APA's executive director for professional practice. In fact, 87 percent of those polled pointed to lack of insurance coverage as a barrier to seeking treatment, and 81 percent pointed to cost concerns. Eighty-five percent of respondents thought that health insurance should cover mental health services, up from a reported 79 percent in 2000, when the Practice Directorate conducted a similar poll.
