Impact of Substance Use and Mental Health Comorbidity on Health Care Access in Canada.
Conclusions: Although the level of access to health care was low overall, those with concurrent disorders were more likely to access mental health services than those with substance use disorders or mental disorders only. The findings of this study reveal various treatment gaps, especially in those experiencing substance use disorders, and reaffirm the importance of improving treatment accessibility for these individuals.
