Overview: Common mental health problems are mainly treated in primary care settings and collaboration with mental health services is needed. Prior to re-organization of the mental health care offer in a geographical area, a study was organized: to evaluate GPs' opinions on their day-to-day practice with Patients with Mental Health Problems (PMHP) and on relationships with Mental Health Professionals; to identify factors associated with perceived need for collaboration with MHPro and with actual collaboration. The paper reveals that GPs need targeted collaboration with MHPro to support their management of PMHP, whom they are willing to care for without systematic referral to specialists as the major therapeutic option.
