Barriers and Facilitators to Screening for Anxiety and Intimate Partner Violence

Implementation of routine screening for anxiety and IPV in women and adolescents in primary care is low but may improve with targeted clinician resources and education. Workflow diagrams and resource guides responsive to identified screening barriers and facilitators, including clarification of insurance coverage for preventive services, and resources to support implementation of protocols of screening methods, clinical documentation, and referrals for anxiety and IPV in primary care settings, could improve screening practices.
