Implementation strategies organized by cluster by Waltz et al. showing mean importance and feasibility ratings provided by a panel of implementation science and clinical experts.

Implementation strategy cluster	Importance	Feasibility	Example of a strategy rated as both important and feasible
Use evaluative and iterative strategies	4.19	4.01	Provide audit and feedback
Provide interactive assistance	3.67	3.29	Facilitation
Adapt and tailor to context	3.59	3.30	Tailor implementation strategies
Develop stakeholder interrelationships	3.47	3.64	Inform local opinion leaders
Train and educate stakeholders	3.43	3.93	Conduct educational meetings
Support clinicians	3.23	3.06	Facilitate relay of clinical data to providers
Engage consumers	3.25	2.95	Involve patients/consumers and family members
Utilize financial strategies	2.86	2.09	a
Change infrastructure	2.40	2.01	a

The importance rating scale ranged from 1 (relatively unimportant) to 5 (extremely important), and the feasibility scale ranged from 1 (not at all feasible) to 5 (extremely feasible).

^aNo implementation strategies in these clusters were rated to be both important and feasible.
