As reimbursement for psychiatry changes, general hospital psychiatry divisions, specifically consultation-liaison (C-L) services, will take on increasingly important roles. This article shows how a variety of funding mechanisms have applications in different hospital systems. Although every recommendation does not apply to each hospital, certain important contributions that C-L psychiatry can make, such as updating diagnosis-related group codes and enhancing hospital reimbursement for services appropriately delivered, are reviewed. Specific recommendations that may be helpful in various hospital systems are offered that, individually and in the aggregate, should enhance the position, as well as the financial, research, and clinical base for an effectively managed C-L service.
随着精神病学报销政策的变化，综合医院的精神科部门，特别是会诊-联络（C-L）服务，将发挥越来越重要的作用。本文展示了多种资金机制如何在不同的医院系统中应用。尽管并非每项建议都适用于每家医院，但我们回顾了C-L精神病学可以做出的某些重要贡献，例如更新诊断相关组代码以及适当提高医院对所提供服务的报销。我们提供了可能有助于各种医院系统的具体建议，这些建议单独或综合起来，都应加强有效管理的C-L服务的地位以及财务、研究和临床基础。
