Bill Says Pentagon Must Upgrade Mental Health Services
Psychiatric News story - " The Department of Defense must ensure that troops with mental health problems can access treatment, if a funding bill for the department is approved. Are the Department of Defense (DoD) and the armed forces devoting enough resources to meet the mental health needs of the troops before, during, and after deployment to combat areas? An amendment to the Fiscal 2005 DoD budget bill (HR 4200) by Reps. Patrick Kennedy (D-R.I.) and Brian Baird (D-Wash.) calls on the secretary of defense to study that question and present the findings to Congress within 90 days of the bill's enactment. HR 4200 was approved with the amendment by the House of Representatives last month and awaits Senate action."
