Reinventing Measurement-Based Care

Symptom-Rating Scales: Systematic & Digitized

 

The necessity of including symptom rating scales in monitoring mental healthcare is paramount.

Just as a physician treating a patient with hypertension measures a patient’s progress by monitoring their blood pressure, measurement-based care with symptom-rating scales helps healthcare providers determine whether or not the patient is benefiting from the prescribed mental health treatment through algorithms and clearly defined biomarkers. 

Ellipsas’ Web-Based, HIPAA Secure Platform

Data-Driven Insights into Patient Care

Through these systematic touch-points, providers are able to provide custom calibrated care by mapping patients’ mental health progress.
