On this episode of Managed Care Cast, we speak with Bruce W. Sherman, MD, with Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, and consultant to the National Alliance of Healthcare Purchaser Coalitions, as he discusses a study he was the lead author of, published in the April issue of The American Journal of Managed Care®, titled "Mental Health Diagnoses and Services Utilization Vary by Wage Level."

Sherman discusses some of the most interesting—and in some cases, surpising findings—as well as key takeways from the study comparing mental health service utiliziation across individuals with different wages.
