Cost Effectiveness of Alcoholism Treatment in Partial Hospital versus Inpatient Settings After Brief Inpatient Treatment: 12-Month Outcomes.
McCrady, Barbara; And Others
Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v54 n5 p708-13 Oct 1986
Alcoholics (N=174) were randomly assigned to partial hospital treatment (PHT) or extended inpatient (EIP) rehabilitation after inpatient evaluation and/or detoxification. There were few differences in clinical outcomes between the PHT and EIP groups. Subjects showed significant improvements in psychological well-being and social behavior. Recommends partial hospital treatment as a cost-effective alternative for many alcoholics. (Author/KS)
