| Abstract: | Examines issues related to the funding of psychological services identified by a joint task force of the Canadian Psychological Association and the Council of Provincial Associations of Psychologists. Discussion focuses on the identification and assessment of systems, sources, and methods of payment. The review of delivery and payment systems suggests that the majority of psychologists use a few payment sources and methods and that education about payment alternatives is needed. Implementation of training in psychology practice innovations and implications of the task force findings for professional standards are discussed.
