This study sought to assess how the probability of receiving psychotherapy following an incident diagnosis of PTSD is influenced by patient rurality, location of diagnosis (Department of Veterans Affairs [VA] or community care), and clinician type. We examined a cohort of veterans (<i>n</i> = 663,256) who received an incident diagnosis of PTSD at a VA or community health care facility between 2019 and 2023. Patients were stratified by rurality, location of diagnosis, and clinician type. Covariates included patient demographics, psychiatric and medical comorbidities, prior VA service use, and prior psychiatric treatment. Probabilities of receiving psychotherapy following PTSD diagnosis were calculated using logistic regression with a three-way interaction of patient rurality, diagnosing clinician, and location of diagnosis. Compared with those diagnosed in the VA, patients diagnosed in the community were more frequently rural, less frequently diagnosed in an outpatient setting, and less frequently diagnosed by social workers, psychologists, psychiatrists, and nonphysician prescribing clinicians. Across all rurality strata, patients diagnosed by mental health clinicians had a high probability of receiving psychotherapy regardless of the location of diagnosis. By contrast, across all rurality strata, patients diagnosed by nonmental health providers had a significantly lower probability of receiving psychotherapy when diagnosed in the community instead of the VA. PTSD diagnoses inside the VA are given by different clinician types than those given in the community, and, in some cases, this is associated with lower initiation of psychotherapy following diagnosis.

One hundred sixty-one veterans completed phone surveys 6-12 months after receiving mindfulness interventions through the Veteran Affairs Health Care System. Bivariate statistics were utilized to estimate relationships between demographic variables and theme scores, effect size for significant findings, and to estimate relationships between theme scores.

They reported benefits from treatment in their depressive symptoms, anxiety, health concerns, and pain levels. More than half of participants reported maintaining a daily mindfulness practice following treatment. Findings suggest that different types of mindfulness interventions had comparable outcomes at follow-up, but demographic variables correlated with different veteran outcomes. Presenting certain mindfulness skills early in mindfulness-based intervention programming and building daily mindfulness practices throughout treatment may help veterans access the most efficacious components of mindfulness-based intervention and reduce the likelihood of dropout.

Descriptive statistics indicated a higher proportion of female doctors seeking counseling services, with 123 out of 170 female participants. Greater concern for physician's well-being was associated with younger age, less years of training, and female sex. Workplace culture, barriers to accessing mental health resources, illegal working hours, and understaffing all emerged as themes describing physicians' experiences of working in Irish hospitals.
