Anxiety and depression continue to plague the nation following the COVID-19 pandemic, with more than 40 percent of adults reporting recent symptoms of anxiety or depression. A shortage of mental health professionals has put Primary Care Providers (PCPs) on the front line of defense for their patients’ mental health issues. But a new national survey of PCPs by the GeneSight Mental Health Monitor finds 83 percent wish more of their patients would talk to them about their mental health concerns and more than half don’t believe patients know that PCPs are fully trained and equipped to diagnose and treat mental health conditions.
