How odd, Arizona is no. 7 in spending = top 10 on the other list but no. 51/dead last in access to care and the number of mentally ill? So they have a goodly percentage of people diagnosed with mental illness, and they spend over $1000 per each, but the problem is access to care?

I know one shouldn't combine studies like I am, but the discrepancy is striking.
