The traps that quietly cost points
These are the point-loss patterns iHuman never tells you about. We map every one for this case.
⚠
PHQ-9 score must be documented — ≥ 10 indicates moderate depression
⚠
Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale for suicidal ideation assessment — document at every visit
⚠
SSRI (sertraline, escitalopram) is first-line — 4-6 weeks for full therapeutic effect
⚠
Must screen for bipolar (MDQ) before starting antidepressant — SSRIs can trigger mania
⚠
Follow-up within 2 weeks of starting medication — assess response and suicidal ideation
