Return to Duty Practices of Army Behavioral Health Providers in Garrison.

Conclusions: If the military is to address the concern of under-reporting behavioral health readiness levels in garrison, it is critical to develop more predictability in treatment planning and reporting, as well as access to necessary data to make these clinical decisions. The interviews and focus groups revealed that while the technical process for initiating a profile does not vary, there is great disparity about the amount and type of information that is taken into consideration when making profile decisions. Categorization of the information that supports RTD decisions can lead to a better understanding of the process and inform leadership about ways to improve the accuracy of BH readiness reporting.
