As a whole, the field of healthcare is constantly seeking to improve how it measures safety and efficacy of treatments. This is done on a macro level through activities such as conducting a clinical trial on a new drug. It is done on a micro level through activities like checking a patient’s blood pressure or glucose levels. The field of behavioral healthcare that addresses issues of mental health and substance use disorders has historically lagged far behind the rest of healthcare in utilizing measurements. We will discuss three different types of measurements that are relevant in healthcare and describe how these can, and should, be implemented in the treatment of mental health and substance use disorders. We will examine specific examples of outcomes studies and measurement-based care processes that can be implemented and how these processes improve care.
