Instant, actionable reports
Clinician Report Clinicians receive a comprehensive, chart-ready Clinician Report immediately after a client completes the assessment. It includes DSM-5 diagnoses, associated symptoms, and severity scores, and can optionally flag high-risk issues like suicidality or violence. The format is clear and intuitive—no training required.
Client Report Clients receive a personalized Client Report with clear, easy-to-understand information that supports client engagement and informed decisions. (Client Reports can be enabled or disabled.)
Validated against the gold standard
PsychScan has high reliability and validity. It was validated against the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM Disorders (SCID)—the diagnostic standard. PsychScan is the newest edition of an assessment tool, formerly called the QPD Panel, trusted by healthcare organizations and refined over 20 years of real-world use. Explore the science:
