Summary

This study tests a new app called Express Access that helps primary care doctors refer patients to mental health therapists. About 600 adults will use the app or standard referral methods. The goal is to see if the app leads to better well-being, higher satisfaction, and faster access to care.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Express Access app (behavioral health referral tool)
What this could lead to: If it works, this could make it easier and faster for people to find a therapist through their primary care doctor, improving their mental health and satisfaction with the referral process.
What could go wrong: This is a relatively small trial testing a process, not a new drug or therapy. The app may not significantly improve outcomes over standard referral methods, and results may not apply to all healthcare settings.
