Do the GAPS comprehensive screening questionnaires increase detection or shorten time to diagnosis of mental health and substance abuse (MH/SA) disorders? Analyses of an administrative database and a prior implementation study to compare change in MH/SA diagnoses pre-GAPS (May 1994 to April 1998) to post-GAPS (May 1999 to April 2003). Rural health network in NY. 8,112 adolescents (13 to 15 years). GAPS questionnaires routinely administered at annual visits starting May 1999. Diagnostic codes reflecting MH/SA disorders for outpatient visits subsequent to an index annual visit were enumerated. Population based rates were derived using school enrollment data. Using time series, the rate of MH/SA diagnoses was compared pre- and post-GAPS. Using survival analysis, historical cohorts of adolescents ages 13–15 years who had an annual visit pre- or post-GAPS were constructed to compare the time to MH/SA diagnosis over two 4-year follow up periods. Using a merged database, a sensitivity, specificity, and proportional hazard analysis of the GAPS for MH/SA diagnosis was completed using 297 GAPS questionnaires. The rate of MH/SA diagnosis did not change significantly pre- and post-GAPS (p=0.13). There was no difference in time to MH/SA diagnosis post-GAPS (7.0 months) and pre-GAPS (9.0 months, log rank p=0.30). A GAPS with > 3 items positive was associated with an increased risk of any MH/SA diagnosis (H.R. 1.97, p = 0.007). Even though related to past or eventual MH/SA diagnosis, GAPS screening did not change the rate of or time to MH/SA diagnosis. N=250
