Earlier plans were for limited privatization, now talks are underway to hire for-profit companies to build and operate three new psychiatric facilities to replace all seven existing state hospitals.
This would end 150 years of state-provided psychiatric care in Georgia.There is now an investigation of the hospitals by the Justice Department.

Florida can't track any difference in care and North Carolina auditors said the state wasted $400 million after allowing unqualified private companies perform treatments.
