The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) provides a standardized framework for diagnosing mental health conditions, which enhances consistency and reliability in clinical practice. It facilitates communication among healthcare providers by offering a common language for discussing mental health issues. Additionally, the DSM aids in research by categorizing disorders, allowing for the identification of patterns and trends in mental health. Finally, it plays a crucial role in insurance reimbursement, as many providers require a DSM diagnosis for coverage of treatment.
