Performance measures for mental health programs: something better, something worse, or more of the same?

H Keppler-Seid et al. Community Ment Health J. 1980 Fall.

Abstract

Current pressures for establishment of accountability systems based on performance measures for mental health programs are likely to improve services only if such systems are accompanied by supportive research, preparatory orientation, wide participation, tested data systems, and elimination of other redundant accountability procedures. A 4-phase, 3-functional level model is proposed to guide implementation.
