Synopsis
A new study out of Oregon shows that around one-in-ten teenagers enrolled in Medicaid spent several days stuck in the emergency room after being admitted for a mental health crisis. In the latest Health Matters on Midday, Maria Shilaos speaks with Doctor Richard Ferguson, President-Black Physicians of Utah, to get clarity on whether or not we're seeing similar trends here in Utah. Maria Shilaos also takes a look at a new Intermountain Health facility opening in Taylorsville, that's specifically dedicated to help minors with mental health issues.
