Why Cedars-Sinai Screens All Inpatient Adults for Depression

 

By some estimates, about 18 million people in the United States, roughly 7% of the adult population, experience an episode of major depression each year. Undiagnosed and untreated, depression can have a profound effect on hospital patients who are also dealing with seemingly unrelated health issues.

 

With that in mind, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, CA announced this month that it has begun screening all adult inpatients for depression along other risk factors that could adversely affect their recovery.

 

Itai Danovitch, MD, MBA, chair of the Cedars-Sinai Department of Psychiatry, spoke with methis week about the need for screening, and how it will become more widespread as hospitals enter value-based reimbursement models. The following is an edited transcript.
