We will discuss strategies for improving the assessment and treatment of individuals with psychosis-spectrum concerns presenting to primary care settings. As part of this discussion, we will highlight the role of integrated care and importance of effective screening tools, an area where the current psychosis-spectrum literature is limited. We will present and discuss data on multiple psychosis-spectrum measures, the IPRI and PRIME, across multiple clinical settings including integrated primary care settings.
