- Anxiety, Assessment & screening
As you’ve heard, the US Preventative Service Task Force (USPSTF) recently issued draft guidelines recommending that primary care providers (PCPs) screen all adults aged 19 to 64 for anxiety disorders. Guidelines recommending anxiety screening for children aged 8 to 18 were finalized last week. The question is, if the screener indicates that anxiety is an issue, then what do you do? Patty Gibson, MD, a psychiatrist on the REACH Adult Behavioral Health faculty, shared some basics from the course to answer the question.
