Multi-Condition Mental Health Screening — Stop Fishing with a Pole
Traditional tools force you to pre-judge which condition to look for. Connected Mind screens for 6 mental health conditions at once — then tests only what's triggered using Standardized Assessment Modules. Screen broad. Test deep. No wasted questions.

Connected Mind is a peer-reviewed, multi-condition behavioral health screening and testing platform purpose-built for primary care. It screens for symptoms associated with 6 behavioral health conditions in under 1 minute with 8 yes/no questions, eliminating the need to administer multiple single-condition tools like the PHQ-9 or GAD-7. Clinical follow-up testing uses validated instruments billable under CPT codes 96127, 96130, 96136, and 96138.
Traditional tools like the PHQ-9 are like fishing with a pole — they screen for one condition at a time. Connected Mind is like fishing with a net — it screens for all 6 conditions in a single pass. Most patients with a behavioral health condition have at least one co-occurring condition. Single-condition tools miss co-occurring symptom patterns, leaving conditions unidentified and patients without a complete clinical picture.

negative predictive power
In a peer-reviewed study of 234 patients across 5 independent primary care practices, Connected Mind's screening achieved 96.4% negative predictive power — meaning when the screen indicates a patient is clear for a given condition, it was correct 96.4% of the time in this study.
Individual results may vary based on patient population, clinical context, and implementation.

How It Works
Screen Broad. Test Deep.
Two tiers, one workflow — designed to save you time.
1
Screen
Patients answer 8 yes/no questions in about 1 minute — no scales, no scoring complexity. The screen is available in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese. Every patient receives the same broad screen, so providers never have to pre-judge which condition to look for.
2
Identify & Test
Connected Mind's validated algorithm identifies which of 6 conditions warrant further evaluation — with 96.4% Negative Predictive Power, providers can confidently rule out conditions. When screening indicates a concern, follow-up testing uses gold-standard validated instruments (PHQ-9, GAD-7, ASRS, MDQ, etc.). Automated scoring eliminates manual calculation errors, and conditions not triggered are skipped entirely.
3
Act
Providers receive a comprehensive clinical report with condition-specific results, severity gauges, consistency scores, and suicidality assessment — delivered instantly to the EHR. The report equips providers to create an informed treatment plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Connected Mind?
Connected Mind is a peer-reviewed, multi-condition mental health screening and testing platform designed for primary care providers. It screens for 6 mental health conditions — Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, Substance Use Disorder, and Somatic Symptom Disorder — in a single 8-question instrument.
How many conditions does it screen for?
Connected Mind screens for 6 mental health conditions simultaneously: Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, Substance Use Disorder, and Somatic Symptom Disorder. Traditional tools like the PHQ-9 only screen for one condition at a time.
How long does screening take?
The initial screening consists of 8 yes/no questions and takes approximately 1 minute. Follow-up testing, when indicated, uses validated instruments and takes about 5-10 minutes.
Is Connected Mind peer-reviewed?
Yes. Connected Mind has been clinically validated in a peer-reviewed study published in Springer with a 96.4% Negative Predictive Power. This means when the screening says a patient is unlikely to have a condition, it is correct 96.4% of the time.
Is it billable to insurance?
Yes. Connected Mind screenings are billable under CPT code 96127, and follow-up testing is billable under CPT codes 96130, 96136, and 96138. Most commercial insurance and Medicare cover these codes.
