How does Tandem work for patients?

During a routine visit, your provider uses validated screening tools like the PHQ-9, EPDS, and GAD-7 to understand what you're experiencing. Based on your results, you receive a personalized care kit tailored to your symptoms, background, and needs. Between visits, you stay connected with your care team through remote therapeutic monitoring that adjusts your treatment in real time.

Do I need a referral to use Tandem?

No. Tandem works through your existing primary care provider or OB/GYN. There are no referrals, no waitlists, and no need to start over with a new provider. Your doctor uses Tandem to screen, diagnose, and treat mild-to-moderate mental health conditions during your regular visit.

What conditions does Tandem help with?

Tandem supports screening and treatment for mild-to-moderate mental health conditions including depression, anxiety, perinatal mood disorders, and postpartum depression. Treatment is guided by validated clinical instruments and evidence-based protocols.

Is Tandem culturally responsive?

Yes. Tandem's care kits are informed by social determinants of health and cultural context. In pilot programs, Tandem achieved 94% engagement among women of color and 75% patient retention — 3x the industry average.

How do I get Tandem at my doctor's office?

Ask your doctor if they use Tandem for mental health support. You can mention that you'd like to be screened for depression or anxiety, ask about Remote Therapeutic Monitoring for ongoing care between visits, and let them know you're interested in a personalized care plan. You can also recommend your provider through our website.
