Missed opportunities for depression screening and treatment in the United States.
This study estimates the prevalence of depression assessment in adults age 35 and older and how prevalence varies by sociodemographic characteristics and depressive symptoms. It found that approximately 50 percent of US adults aged 35+ were being assessed for depression in 2014-2015. Certain populations were more likely to be missed, including men, people over 75 years old, minorities, and the uninsured.
