Description
The CRAFFT 2.1 is a 9-item self-report screener designed to identify substance use, substance-related riding/driving risk, and substance use disorder among youth ages 12-21.
Special Instructions
Patients who answer “0” to questions 1-3 should answer question 4, then stop. Patients who answer 1 or higher to any of the first 3 questions should answer questions 4-9. Once the patient has submitted it, you may preview it on the uninitialed documents tab in the EHR. However, do not initial it or it won't later be pulled into your Mobile Note.
