Table 4 Association between baseline patient characteristics, complexity and symptom severity measures, and clinician assessments, and patient drop out and, for those who engaged, treatment response. Drop out defined as failure to attend treatment visits after the initial assessment. N total is everyone who attended the initial visit, and N engaged is the participants that attended the initial visit and at least one treatment visit. Treatment response defined as achievement of at least a 5 point improvement in PHQ score at the last attended visit up to the 5th treatment visit. P-values from Fisher’s Exact Tests
