"oh so you all think we are funding mental health, do you?" cackles the witch of the fickle wind. Well she got us good that time. It turns out that the lovely slab of money that was allocated for mental health treatment came in part from...wait for it....other mental health treatment !!! Oh the wisdom, the cleverness of it all.
It turns out that Medicare funding is now being slashed to pay. As of November we will no longer be able to see people with anxiety disorders, depression, post traumatic stress disorder, etc for any more than six sessions (ten under special circumstances). Huh! I'm good? Yeah, but not that good.
Its a slight of hand, an illusion and we all are about to suffer.
