5.24.2018 KM 03 Clarify the language in the guidance stating, “screening for adults for depression with systems in place to assure accurate diagnosis, effective treatment and follow-up.”

The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) states that adults and adolescents should be screened for depression when a practice has access to services that can be used for follow-up, if there is a positive result (i.e., mental health providers within the practice or external to the practice to whom the practice can refer patients). To meet KM 03, practices are expected to have an approach to follow up and act on results.
