This indicator shows the percentage of adults who needed care for emotional or mental health or substance abuse issues who also stated that they obtained help for those issues in the past year. This indicator does not reflect the total percentage of adults that experienced those issues. Psychological distress can affect all aspects of our lives. It is important to recognize and address potential psychological issues before they become critical. Mental disorders are common across the United States, but only a fraction of those affected receive treatment. Although occasional down days are normal, persistent mental and emotional health problems should be evaluated and treated by a qualified professional.

This indicator shows the primary care provider rate per 100,000 population. Primary care providers include practicing physicians specializing in general practice medicine, family medicine, internal medicine, and pediatrics. Access to primary care providers increases the likelihood that community members will have routine checkups and screenings. Moreover, those with access to primary care are more likely to know where to go for treatment in acute situations. Communities that lack a sufficient number of primary care providers typically have members who delay necessary care when sick and conditions can become more severe and complicated.
