ABSTRACT
There is a high prevalence of untreated depression in adults and youth observed at the population level in the United States, and many who would benefit from treatment do not receive it. One proposed effort to increase access to care is the use of measurement-based care (MBC; repeated use of symptom measures for screening and treatment guidance) by primary care physicians to treat non-complex cases of depression. MBC has been shown to improve patient outcomes compared to care as usual, but there are barriers that need to be addressed at the health system level for effective implementation to occur. Herein we provide an overview of MBC and detail benefits and barriers of MBC implementation. Relevant considerations and guidance for implementing MBC are presented, and a case example of a health system implementing MBC is included. Though issues of reimbursement, limited human and technological resources, and resistance to systemic change are barriers to implementing MBC, effective strategies exist to overcome these barriers. In addition to helping health systems align with changes to value-based care models, effective implementation of MBC can likely improve patient outcomes and result in net financial benefits.
