Medicare Psychiatric Hospital Beds in the Mid-East States

Psychiatric hospitals are an important component of the hospital infrastructure that serves over 62 million Americans having Medicare Part A insurance coverage.  Over 6,200 hospitals of all types, having over 927,300 beds in total, were participating in the Medicare program in the calendar year 2020.  About 9.9% of those hospitals, and 6.6% of those hospital beds, were provided by psychiatric hospitals.  

In the calendar year 2020, the Mid-East region of the U.S. was home to 81 psychiatric hospitals, with over 14,300 beds, that were participating in the Medicare program.  Medicare enrollees in the Mid-East states are well served by psychiatric bed capacity.  Although the region is home to about 15% of the nation's Medicare Part A enrollment, it holds close to 23.5% of the Medicare program's psychiatric hospital beds.  Here is a state-level look at Medicare psychiatric hospital beds in the Mid-East states of the U.S.:

  3. In order to deliver services to people in 20 eastern Washington counties, Eastern State Hospital collaborates with individuals, families, advocates, community healthcare providers, regional support networks, employee groups, educational organizations, and local and state government agencies. For those with serious or persistent mental illnesses who have been referred to the hospital by a behavioral health organization or the civil court system—where they have been given an order for compulsory treatment—the hospital offers examination and inpatient treatment.
