Outcomes & Assessments
Measure what matters. Built in.
23+ validated instruments. Statistically rigorous change detection. Safety flags the moment a patient hits submit. Population reports your payors will actually accept — all without buying TRAC9, Greenspace, or Vista on top of your EHR.

The honest market scan
Outcomes is either an afterthought or a separate invoice.
Behavioral-health software has solved this in two unsatisfying ways: bolt on a third-party measurement tool, or pay extra for a specialty platform that lives outside your chart. Auxo refuses both.
Outcomes specialists
vs. TRAC9, Greenspace, Vista
They charge per user, per patient, or per administration — and live in a separate login outside your EHR. Auxo gives you the same depth, in the same chart, with no second invoice.
Behavioral-health EHRs
vs. Kipu, Opus, Alleva
Most have a generic ‘forms’ engine and call it outcomes. No RCI, no auto-flagging, no kiosk, no population reporting payors will actually accept.
The closest competitor
vs. Lightning Step
Lightning Step does have outcomes (80+ measures). It’s also a black box — no statistical change detection, no item-level customization, and you still need their other modules to get a full record.
The instrument library
23 validated instruments. One-click activation.
The standards your survey expects to see — Depression, Anxiety, Safety, Substance Use, Trauma, Recovery Capital, Quality of Life. Plus item-level customization if your facility uses a proprietary or adapted instrument.
Patient Health Questionnaire (depression)
Brief depression screener
Beck Depression Inventory
Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Brief anxiety screener
Beck Anxiety Inventory
Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale
Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test
Drug Abuse Screening Test
Rapid substance screen
Addiction Severity Index
Drug Craving Questionnaire
PTSD Checklist DSM-5
Adverse Childhood Experiences
Brief Assessment of Recovery Capital
Stages of Change Readiness
Working Alliance Inventory (therapy fit)
Outcome Rating Scale (session feedback)
Session Rating Scale (alliance)
Quality of Life — BREF
Client Satisfaction Questionnaire
Positive & Negative Affect Schedule
Brief Symptom Checklist
Plus full item-level customization: write your own questions, response options, severity bands, subscales, and scoring methods. Your facility isn’t locked into someone else’s instrument design.
Statistical rigor
Reliable Change Index. Not just ‘the number went down.’
Most EHR ‘outcomes’ modules show you a point change — ‘PHQ-9 dropped from 18 to 14’ — and call it progress. Auxo computes the Reliable Change Index using each instrument’s standard error of measurement, so you know whether that change is clinically real or random noise. The same standard research clinics use, in your chart.

Safety flagging
The flag fires the moment they hit submit.
C-SSRS positive. PHQ-9 item 9 positive. Cutoff crossed up. RCI worsening. Auxo computes the flag at submission and surfaces it on the patient’s chart in red — before the tablet is even back at the front desk.
- C-SSRS items 3–5 → critical (active ideation)
- C-SSRS items 1–2 → high (passive ideation)
- PHQ-9 item 9 > 0 → critical (suicidal ideation isolated)
- Threshold crossing → severity tier change tracked both ways
- Significant worsening (RCI > 1.96) → flagged as real, not noise
Four ways to collect
Meet patients where they are.
Some patients fill out a tablet at intake. Some prefer a link on their phone. Some answer with their clinician. Some need a recurring battery on a schedule. Auxo supports all four — same instruments, same scoring, same chart.
Tablet kiosk
Hand a tablet to a patient at check-in. They look themselves up by MRN or name + DOB, take their pending assessments one question at a time, and the score is on the chart by the time they hand it back. Auto-locks after 2 minutes of inactivity.
Tokenized email link
Send a secure link by email or SMS. Patient takes the assessment on their own phone — no login, no app to install. The score posts back to their record automatically.
In-session administration
Clinician launches the assessment from the chart, captures responses live, and sees the scored result before the session ends.
Standing orders
Schedule recurring batteries — daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, at admission, at discharge. The system sends them. You read the trend.
Population reporting
The outcomes report your payors will accept.
Facility-wide improvement % per instrument. Per-LOC filtering (residential, PHP, IOP). Date-range cohorts. Clean CSV export to drop into a value-based contract submission. The data your medical director keeps re-pulling from spreadsheets.

Pricing posture
The one outcomes tool you don’t buy separately.
Specialty outcomes platforms charge per user, per patient, or per administration. Auxo’s outcomes module is included with every plan — no seat licenses, no per-administration fees, no ‘outcomes upgrade’ line item on your invoice.
