Sammanfattning
The mental health needs of patients receiving physical health care often remain undiagnosed and untreated, resulting in significant costs to the health care
system. However, some countries have recently seen fast progress with the development of consultation liaison psychiatry. In Sweden, this service has developed
quite slowly, but a breakthrough may be imminent. There is evidence that providing better support for co-morbid health problems may improve the psychological quality
of care and reduce physical health care costs in acute hospitals. Consultation liaison psychiatry fits well with the current trends of value-based health care,
personalized care, and an emphasis on networking in care.
