Improving Psychiatric Diagnosis in Primary Care with the Mental Health Assessment Tool (MHAT)

This project will validate the Mental Health Assessment Tool (MHAT), a digital decision support platform developed by Harrison Healthcare to streamline mental health assessments in primary care. The study will compare MHAT’s diagnostic suggestions to gold-standard clinical interviews, evaluate its alignment with established symptom severity measures, and examine its relationship with key mental health indicators like quality of life and suicidal thoughts. By ensuring MHAT’s accuracy and reliability, this research will help refine the tool and lay the groundwork for scaling its use to address the growing mental health burden in Canada.
