# Measurement-based care, built in.

**CurerTech's measurement-based care turns routine screening into proof that treatment is working—**validated instruments like PHQ-9 and GAD-7 administered, scored, and tracked over time inside the chart. Results trend automatically and feed quality reporting, so outcomes are visible to clinicians and payers alike.

What's inside

## What's in measurement-based care?

The screening-to-outcomes loop, built into the record instead of bolted on.

**Instruments**

### Validated measures

Built-in instruments — PHQ-9, GAD-7, and more — assigned by program and population.

**Scoring**

### Automatic scoring

Assessments scored automatically, with results saved straight to the record.

**Trends**

### Outcomes over time

Scores trend across the episode of care, so progress is visible at a glance.

**Self-report**

### Patient-completed measures

Patients can complete measures through the portal before a visit.

**Risk flags**

### Risk flags

Flags when a score worsens or crosses a threshold, surfacing risk early.

**Reporting**

### Feeds quality reporting

Outcomes flow into quality and value-based reporting without re-entry.

Why it matters

## Why does measurement-based care matter?

Measurement-based care is linked to better outcomes than treatment as usual.

**Quality**

### Proof that care works

Tracked outcomes demonstrate effectiveness to payers and accreditors.

**Clinical**

### Better-informed treatment

Objective trends sit alongside clinical judgment to guide care.

**Revenue**

### Ready for value-based care

Outcome data supports value-based and quality-linked reimbursement.

Measurement-based care is linked to better outcomes than treatment as usual, yet stays underused in behavioral health — often because legacy systems make it manual. (Behavioral health outcomes research, 2025.)

One record

## How does measurement-based care connect to CurerTech?

It is the practice of using validated measures to track patient outcomes over time and guide treatment — built into CurerTech so screening, scoring, and trending happen in the chart.

### Which instruments are included?

Common validated measures such as PHQ-9 and GAD-7 are built in, assignable by program, with room for the instruments your programs use.

### Are assessments scored automatically?

Yes. Measures are scored automatically and the results are saved to the record and trended over time.

### Can patients complete measures themselves?

Yes. Patients can complete measures through the portal before a visit, so results are ready at the appointment.

### Does it feed quality reporting?
