Behavioral health outcome management (BHOM) involves the use of behavioral health outcome measurement data to help guide and inform the treatment of each individual patient. Like blood pressure, cholesterol and other routine lab work that helps to guide and inform general medical practice, the use of routine measurement in behavioral health is proving to be invaluable in assisting therapists to deliver better quality care. ==Macro-context== In behavioral healthcare (mental health and substance abuse treatment) routine health outcomes measurement has expanded beyond aggregating measurements for quality improvement studies and has placed equal emphasis on the therapeutic gain delivered by real-time patient-level outcome feedback.〔''Pushing the Quality Envelope: A New Outcomes Management System.'' Brown, G. S., et al. 2001, PSYCHIATRIC SERVICES, Vol. 52(7), pp. 925-934.〕 With the $200 billion behavioral health marketplace in a state of public health crisis as defined by the US Surgeon General〔US Surgeon General. ''Mental Health: A Report of the Surgeon General.'' US Department of Health and Human Services. Rockville, MD : U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services, National Institutes of Health, National Institute on Mental Health, 1999.〕 with most patients receiving substandard care, outcome management is helping to provide quality controls, data and structure for a large subsection (more than 27%) of the US population. Almost by definition, psychotherapy is a rather unstructured process, leaving many people who are going through the process of guided self-discovery and behavioral change to wonder whether therapy is helping. Tracking progress with repeated administrations of a self-report questionnaire allows both therapist and client to know what is getting better from the perspective that matters most—the patient's.
