Psychological assessment is often an integral element of a patient's behavioral health treatment. Behavioral health providers in integrated settings have an obligation to report assessment results in a clinically useful and accessible way to facilitate their use in patient care. This presentation provides results from a study in which we investigated physician and APP perspectives on psychological testing reports and asked for their opinions on how to improve the clinical utility of testing reports.
