Behavioral Health Integration

Mental health support
built into the visit.

Patients struggling with anxiety, depression, or substance use are showing up in every primary-care office. PatientMD brings a behavioral-health care manager and a consulting psychiatrist to your team — without you hiring anyone — so patients get real help and the practice gets paid for delivering it.

From positive PHQ-9 to care-manager alert

A proven model
The way mental health is supposed to work in primary care — team-based, measurement-based, and effective.
We bring the team
Licensed care managers and board-certified psychiatrists work alongside your practice. You don't hire anyone.
Outcomes you can see
Patient symptom scores tracked over time, visible in the chart, so you can see who's getting better.

Measurement-based care

The same validated tools the best academic centers use.

Patients answer these on their own time, in their own language. We grade them server-side and surface only what matters.

Average PHQ-9 score, by month enrolled

Below 5 = remission. Below 10 = mild. 15+ = moderately severe.
