Technology Enabled Services to Enhance Depression Care

This study will compare two digital mental health interventions (DMHIs). One DMHI will use an app called Vira (which is a product developed and managed by Ksana Health), along with low intensity coaching provided via phone and both SMS text and in-app messaging. The other DMHI will provide a broad range of information on how to manage symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress. The DMHI will be evaluated with patients receiving care from Rush University Medical Center's primary care and family medicine clinics, which serve racially, ethnically, and economically diverse communities; evaluations may also be extended beyond Rush patients.
