Homelessness Prevention: Psychiatric Care With Representative Payeeship

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Mental Illness

In brief

Money management is a neglected issue in maintaining persons with mental illness in the community. This randomized controlled trial (RCT) assessed whether a community-based representative payee program, i.e., money management of Social Security and/or VA benefits, coordinated with VA psychiatric care (CO-RP) could be more effective than customary treatment for veterans who had no representative payee.
