Introduction
Dr. Greenberg is a researcher whose focus has been on Military and Veteran mental healthcare, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), complex co-occurring disorders, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, suicide, and healthcare quality and fidelity.
Dr. Greenberg has published on PTSD and TBI and depression amongst Military and Veteran populations. He has served as a subject matter expert for Navy Medicine and DoD Medicine, where he has focused and advised senior leaders on mental health, clinical care, training, and policy.

Overview of the Survey
Collaboration between the American Legion and Data Recognition Corporation (DRC)
Exploratory research regarding
• Type of care patients report receiving for PTSD and TBI• Patients’ perceptions of effectiveness of treatment• Patients’ reports of access to a range of treatment
options, including Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM)
Quick turnaround study First step in long-range program to encourage treatment
options and fidelity to treatment protocols4

Need for the Research
Limited information on types of treatment Veterans receive
Limited research documenting fidelity to treatment models
Limited knowledge about use of CAM
Limited evidence of effectiveness of CAM

Purpose of the Survey
To obtain a snapshot of what treatments Veterans are receiving and how they perceive them; and
To obtain information to help guide more rigorous, in-depth research to support the establishment of treatment models and an eventual system of fidelity modeling.

Key Findings
Respondents reported common symptoms: Elevated Anger, Pain, Sleep Problems, Anxiety, Depression and Irritability.
For PTSD, individuals are receiving multiple therapy types with fewer than a quarter of respondents receiving treatment in conformity to DoD/VA evidence-based practice models of care.
![Page 9: The American Legion Survey of Patient Healthcare Experiences Jeff Greenberg, Ph.D.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062408/56813f61550346895daa30d1/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Key Findings (continued)
For TBI, individuals are receiving a wide array of treatment types.
Medication appears to be the front line treatment reported by respondents.
A sizable proportion of respondents reported prescriptions of up to 10 medications for PTSD/TBI across their treatment experience.
![Page 10: The American Legion Survey of Patient Healthcare Experiences Jeff Greenberg, Ph.D.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062408/56813f61550346895daa30d1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Key Findings (continued)
Broadly, respondents reported limited change following treatment for PTSD and TBI:
• Following therapy, the majority of respondents reported no change or worsening of symptoms;
• Following medication, a slight majority reported no change or worsening of symptoms; and
• In general, approximately half of all respondents reported no change or minimal improvement in symptoms.

Key Findings (continued)
Nearly half of all respondents had discussed some type of CAM-based treatment with their providers.
Respondents reported numerous types of CAM treatments, especially Meditation, Relaxation, and Stress Reduction.

Key Findings (continued)
30 percent of respondents indicated they had terminated treatment prior to completion.
An array of rationales for treatment termination were reported.
In declining order, the rationales cited were: Lack of Improvement, Side Effects, Dissatisfied with Provider, Solve Problems on My Own, Time Burden or Distance to Treatment, and Stigma

Recommendations
To establish a knowledge base on the care of Veterans with PTSD and TBI, a multi-step program of research is needed over a period of years:
• Establishment of baseline date, building on information gathered here, but probing more deeply and capturing data suitable for correlations and statistical modeling;
• Surveys to track progress over time;• Funding of demonstration programs to test effectiveness of
alternative treatments and to generate best practices and models of care as well as update practice guidelines with new findings; and
• Establishment of system for monitoring and evaluating fidelity of care.
![Page 38: The American Legion Survey of Patient Healthcare Experiences Jeff Greenberg, Ph.D.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062408/56813f61550346895daa30d1/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Recommendations (continued)
Simultaneously, a second track of research and development is needed to ensure the availability of a trained work force prepared to treat PTSD and TBI. That will entail steps parallel to the development of models of care:
• Ancillary research on professional development related to treatment of PTSD and TBI;
• Development of professional standards and collaboration with schools to build curricula that support standards of care;
• Establishment of a National Advisory Group to plan the multi-step research program; and
• Regular tracking surveys.

Next Steps
Establish a National Advisory Group to plan the multi-step research program.
Refine survey design in preparation for collection of baseline data and tracking surveys.
