Altarum is expanding the reach of the Bureau of Justice Assistance's (BJA) Peer Recovery Support Services (PRSS) Training and Technical Assistance Center, a critical resource to criminal justice and social services organizations across the nation.

New study shows success with integrating evidence-based approaches to alcohol-related care into clinical workflows at Indiana University Health.

Altarum’s analysis of Virginia’s behavioral health care spending between 2014 and 2020 finds that per-enrollee spending on behavioral health care significantly increased across payers. Learn the many factors contributing to the growth.

In order to gain a better understanding of gaps and barriers to behavioral health treatment, the Michigan Health Endowment Fund contracted with Altarum to study access across Michigan. 

More than 650,000 Michiganders with a mental illness and over 500,000 with a substance use disorder fail to receive any treatment for their conditions, according to a new study by Altarum, which examined access to behavioral health services in Michigan by payer type.

Funded by the Michigan Health Endowment Fund, the new report uses 2019 data to provide a picture of behavioral health access in Michigan just prior to the pandemic.
