Behavioral Health Market in The Post-COVID-19 Era
Compared to June 2019, when only 10% of US adults showed signs of depression and anxiety, the percentage has risen significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic, with approximately 40% of American adults experiencing these symptoms. Young adults are particularly affected, with over 56% experiencing similar mental problems and being more susceptible to substance abuse and suicidal thoughts.
The COVID-19 pandemic has long-term implications, with healthcare workers expected to experience ongoing mental health effects even after the pandemic ends. The increasing number of people experiencing mental health issues suggests others may also be affected. That’s why psychiatry EHR is in high demand.

Key Features
Questionnaire System
The essential feature of the MoodLifters app is a complex questionnaire system. Each question has its type. Each type has different evaluations. Besides, many options exist for questions and answers in various formats. The complex reports are built based on this system.
The tests’ results provide valuable information about a user’s mental health status, symptoms, and treatment needs. They also help mental health professionals develop an effective treatment plan. For example, if a user scores high on a depression screening, their mental health professional may recommend therapy, medication, or other interventions to address their symptoms.
Patient Profile
It allows users to create and maintain a digital record of their mental health history, treatment progress, and other relevant information. The user securely accesses this information to facilitate more effective and personalized care.
Doctor Profile
This provides users with detailed information about mental health professionals available on the platform, such as therapists, psychiatrists, or counselors. Typically, it involves information about qualifications and credentials, the expertise area, experience, and availability. With the help of the Mood Lifters app, doctors can create patients, make appointments, set the users’ goals, and give rewards for achieving them. Moreover, doctors can make reports based on the information in the app.
Admin Panel
With it, administrators manage and oversee various aspects of the app’s operations. This includes managing user accounts, reviewing patient and doctor profiles, monitoring app usage and performance, and accessing analytics and other data about app usage. Besides, admins create new users, goals, and rewards for them. Moreover, they make reports based on user profiles and appointments.
Dashboard
The dashboard in a mental healthcare app is a valuable feature that helps users stay informed and engaged in their mental health treatment. By providing users with a centralized hub for accessing a range of features and tools, the dashboard makes it easier to stay on top of their treatment goals and achieve better mental health outcomes.
Scheduling
The scheduling feature allows users to view the availability of mental health professionals, choose a suitable time slot, and book online or offline appointments directly within the app.
Gamification
The Mood Lifters app offers its users rewards for making progress. By providing users with tangible benefits for achieving their goals, such as virtual rewards, the app motivates people to continue using the app and working towards their mental health goals.
