No one returns my calls… no one takes my insurance

No one even returns my calls… No one takes my insurance… Everyone I call has no openings.

These are the phrases I hear from my patients, friends, and family who are trying to find psychiatric medications for a behavioral health or substance abuse concern.

My office manager recently tried to find services for her daughter; she called 19 psychiatrists without one return call.

Why?
