" 50% of Americans have a diagnosable behavior health issue in their lifetime

" 11-51% comorbidity rate exist between chronic illness and mental health

" 2/3 of patients receiving care for mental health issues are diagnosed and treated by their PCP

" More than 60% of depressive, bipolar, and anxiety disorders are misdiagnosed by the PCP

" 30-50% of patients who take the MINI Screen code positive for at least 1 DSM Disorder

!

Who pays for these services? Per the Affordable Care Act, it is mandatory for all Marketplace Plans and Network Providers to do preventive health screenings annually. Our services are covered by Medicaid, Medicare, and most private insurance providers with no copay.

What is the Process? During the initial visit the patient takes the 1 page MINI Screen. Each patient that test positive is scheduled by the embedded technician to take the MINI diagnostic interview. The Interview is administered on a tablet via our HIPAA compliant cloud and takes on average 10 minutes or less to complete. The technician guides the patient through the process and answers any questions that the patient may have. The patient is then scheduled for a follow-up visit by the office staff with the physician to discuss their results and appropriate treatment plan.
