• Provides software with advanced features that allow for the integration of assessment as part of the clinical process (with minimal staff or respondent burden) and the customization of surveys and reports.

• Surveys can be completed in twenty minutes or less.

• Data quality indicators that alert counselors to random or inauthentic patient responding, and ensure that aggregate analyses of program performance are based upon reliable data.

• Real time, clinically actionable patient reports.

• Assessment of patient strengths as well as deficits.

• Screens for psychosis, chemical dependency, bipolar disorder.

• Concurrently monitors treatment to determine whether the patient’s progress is consistent with expectations, assess whether the current treatment plan needs modification, and recommend new services.
