NPE Assessment Tools Practice Test

PRIME-MD is a quick, modular screening tool used in primary care to flag common mental health problems. In addition to anxiety and depression, its modules assess alcohol use disorders, somatoform disorders, and eating disorders. This combination helps clinicians identify conditions that often accompany mood or anxiety symptoms or present with physical complaints, without needing a full psychiatric interview. The other conditions listed—trauma-related and personality disorders, geriatric cognitive disorders, and neurodevelopmental disorders—are not part of the standard PRIME-MD modules and are typically evaluated with other tools or in different clinical contexts.
