Acknowledgements

This volume could not have been compiled without the essential assistance of the local mental health providers and the State mental health agencies that contributed data on program operations. Compilation of these data was greatly facilitated by the National Association of State Mental Health Program Directors, the American Hospital Association, the National Association of Psychiatric Healthcare Systems, and the National Center on Health Statistics. In addition, the managed behavioral health care industry and the health maintenance organization industry provided important information.

Particular recognition is due to EEI Communications, Inc., for its editorial support. All other support and assistance are gratefully acknowledged.
