Here’s a scary statistic: only 2% of children with mental health conditions in the US receive evidence-based treatment. To address this, the Mayo Clinic developed a digital tool for pediatric visits. The tool, issued to both children (7-17) and parent/guardians, provides an online assessment linking symptoms to possible conditions. This prepares families for more informed discussions during annual checkups, crucial as appointments are typically brief. By initiating dialogue beforehand, Mayo Clinic aims to better equip pediatricians and improve patient outcomes.
