Osmind

We are excited to announce a landmark collaboration with the American Psychiatric Association (APA) to advance quality psychiatric care and accelerate research. "At Osmind, we emphasize the importance of clinicians participating in evidence-generating medicine to help shape the future of mental health care, especially as the psychiatric field begins to embrace new treatments and precision psychiatry,” says Carlene MacMillan, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Osmind. “Clinicians in private practice juggle many competing demands so it is crucial we make participation both easy and worthwhile to them." To make participation in evidence-generating medicine easier for busy private practitioners, we’re integrating APA's diagnostic and outcomes measures directly into the Osmind EHR. We're starting with the DSM-5-TR Self-Rated Level 1 Cross-Cutting Symptom Measure, which joins our library of 40+ measures, enabling clinicians to contribute to research at the point of care. We’ll also explore an integration between the Osmind EHR and PsychPRO so that clinicians using the Osmind EHR can participate effortlessly in the PsychPRO registry. "PsychPRO is the tool healthcare organizations need to guide their efforts to deliver quality mental health care and improve patient outcomes," says Nitin Gogtay, M.D., APA Chief of Research and Deputy Medical Director. "Our collaboration with Osmind will allow us to strengthen PsychPRO today, and long-term offers promise to broaden the scope of our impact on psychiatry and on the patients we serve.” We are delighted to work with the APA, and proud to enable independent practices to contribute to the evolution of the field and elevate their own evidence-based practices. https://lnkd.in/g4RU7Ftt
