MBC can enhance clinical decision-making and quality of care by prompting personalized changes in treatment based on measured patient outcomes. MBC can also promote more precise communications between patients and clinicians around individual patient care. While commonly employed in psychiatric clinical research, the use of MBC in everyday practice can be complicated by clinic operations and variability across patients. We implemented MBC in the UT Southwestern Psychiatry Multispecialty Outpatient Clinic during the expansion of our general psychiatry clinic and subspecialty targeted programs. This article describes the top 10 lessons we learned as we confronted practical obstacles around implementing the ideals of MBC into a pre-existing, busy psychiatric clinical practice and how doing so impacts care, provider engagement, patient engagement, and research opportunity.Keywords: measurement-based care, clinic operations, quality improvement, quality care, screening, outpatient |
