How this service works
Cacciola 2013 Brief Addiction Monitor (BAM; public-domain VA instrument). Three subscales only: Use (items 4+5+6, 0-90), Risk (items 1+2+3+8+11+15, 0-102 on Table 1 0-4 Likert plus 0-30 days), Protective (items 9+10+12+13+14+16, 0-98; income No=0 Yes=30). Items 7a-g and 17 collected, not summed. No total BAM score. magent does not interview the patient. Not a diagnosis, level-of-care order, or medical device.
Output
Returns the three BAM subscale scores: Use (sum of items 4+5+6, range 0-90), Risk (sum of items 1+2+3+8+11+15, range 0-102), and Protective (sum of items 9+10+12+13+14+16, range 0-98), plus the raw collected values for items 7a-g and 17 which are not summed. No total BAM score is produced. This is not a diagnosis, level-of-care order, or medical device output.

Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.magentlab.com/api/calc/bamWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to compute validated BAM subscale scores from pre-collected item responses according to the Cacciola 2013 scoring algorithm, particularly in VA or SUD clinical workflows. Prefer this over manual calculation to ensure correct subscale groupings and score ranges. Do not use this endpoint to interview patients, produce diagnoses, or determine level of care.
Side effects
- Missing required query parameters returns an error indicating which fields are absent
- Out-of-range integer values (e.g. days > 30 or Likert > 4) may produce incorrect subscale totals or validation errors
- Payment failure via x402 results in a 402 response and no scoring result
- Caller misassigning item values (e.g. swapping days-based items with Likert items) produces silently incorrect subscale scores
