Mobile Delivery Program to Prevent Relapse and Improve Functioning in Patients With Psychiatric Diseases.
The term "revolving door patients" refers to those who are frequently rehospitalized for relapse. This phenomenon can be explained by a multitude of factors, including a lack of medical and/or social support. On the basis of a review of various modalities of psychiatric treatment, such as long-acting injectables, assisted outpatient treatment, and telehealth, it is clear that a major underlying issue among people with psychiatric diseases who lack insight into their mental and physical health is medication nonadherence. Therefore, we propose a mobile delivery program (MDP) in which health care professionals deliver medications and care to psychiatric patients in their own homes. The target patient population for MDP is patients with medication nonadherence, frequent emergency department visits, and missed appointments. Patients with mental illnesses, especially schizophrenia, are disproportionately represented among the homeless and incarcerated populations. By implementing MDP, we can help break the cycle of incarceration for patients with mental illnesses and homelessness. In addition, the cost of transportation and salaries for the mobile delivery team would be considerably lower than the billions of dollars spent each year due to relapses, emergency department visits, inpatient admissions, and crime leading to long-term stays in correctional facilities. This model has the potential to reduce relapse, improve functioning, and reduce excess morbidity and mortality. Substantial cost savings for health services can, in turn, be expected.
