Actual (reported)Quality-Adjusted Life Years (QALYs)
Change in QALYs from baseline through 18 months. QALYs are a generic measure of disease burden, including both the quality and the quantity of life lived. One QALY equates to one year in perfect health. To measure change in QALYs, utility scores \[an overall assessment of well-being on a scale from 0 (death) to 1 (perfect health)\], were estimated using the Short Form-6 dimension, with scores derived from responses to the 12-Item Short-Form Health Survey, version 2, at baseline and 6, 12, and 18 months. QALYs for the period from baseline to 18 months were then calculated as the area under the curve by linearly interpolating the utility scores at the 4 assessments. Change in QALYs was then obtained by subtracting the baseline QALY from the observed QALY for an 18-month period, where baseline QALY was calculated under the assumption that the baseline utility score remained constant during the 18-month period.

Participants randomized to this arm will complete the Depressive symptom screener (8-item Patient Health Questionnaire, PHQ-8) after randomization. Those with clinically significant score (\>=10) will be offered treatment. Treatment will be delivered according to participant preference, and will be managed according to "stepped care". Stepped care includes, a) participant preference for either brief, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), delivered centrally by telephone, or antidepressant medication managed at the local site, or both, or neither, and b) review of progress at approximately 2-month intervals, with "stepping up" of care if sufficient progress is not being realized.
Participants randomized to this arm will complete the depressive symptom screener (8-item Patient Health Questionnaire, PHQ-8) after randomization. Those with clinically significant score (\>=10) will have a letter sent to their primary care provider about their positive screen for depressive symptoms, with subsequent actions at the provider's discretion.
The main intervention is the impact of screening on quality of life and health care costs. CBT is provided only if depressive symptoms are detected and participant prefers this type of treatment. CBT will be centrally telephone-administered by a trained CBT treatment specialist. The treatment specialist will work with local team members throughout a participant's involvement in the study, and will closely follow each participant until he or she has reached a requisite level of improvement .

Actual (reported)Implementation Science Approach to Enhancing Depression Treatment in Collaborative Depression Care Settings ( DepCare )
Participants randomized to this arm will not complete a PHQ-8 assessment at randomization, and so will not be screened for depressive symptoms.
The main intervention is the impact of screening on quality of life and health care costs. Antidepressant Medication is provided only if depressive symptoms are detected and patient prefers this type of treatment. Antidepressants should be started at the lowest dose, but should be adjusted upward to be within the therapeutic range within 1 week, with further adjustment higher in the therapeutic range possible at 3-4 weeks. Dosage of the first medication selected will be in the therapeutic range by 3 weeks of the initial step, as tolerated.
Participants will receive standard care from either their primary care provider (PCP), or PCP-referred mental health provider in one of the arms, IF depressive symptoms are detected.
