Measurement-informed care (MIC), also known as measurement-based care or patient-reported outcomes, for behavioral health conditions has had low uptake in the United States. To advance MIC in the near term, the authors reviewed nationally endorsed behavioral health measures and worked with national experts to recommend a core set of outpatient measures to prioritize for use. The resulting set of measures is for common behavioral and comorbid conditions and is outcomes based, low burden, and suitable for value-based payment. The panel of national experts also recommended developing a consensus on quality-of-life measures and functional measures for use across diagnostic categories of the core set.
