title: Costing Study of the Clients of the Mobile Community Treatment Program [1987-1988: Madison, Wisconsin]
title: Version 2

description: The University of Wisconsin's Department of Preventive
Medicine, in cooperation with the Department of Psychiatry and the
Mental Health Center of Dane County, Wisconsin, conducted a
comprehensive costing study of the clients of a community-based program
for treating the mentally ill, the Mobile Community Treatment program
(MCT), in Madison, Wisconsin. MCT provided assertive outreach and case
management for individuals with major psychiatric disorders. The aim of
this study was to determine the costs for clients of MCT to live in the
community, including the costs of their medical, residential,
employment, law enforcement, and maintenance needs. Clients of MCT were
queried about their use of services provided by medical, human service,
and law enforcement agencies, as well as their receipt of in-kind and
cash benefits from public and private agencies. Service and cost data
on survey respondents were also obtained from the records of local
agencies, such as the Dane County Sheriff's Department, Dane County
Circuit Court, Dane County Department of Public Health, homeless
shelters, Adult Protective Services, and vocational training programs.
