Notes: Dashes (–) mean the state implemented no elements in the topic area. The number of elements is not an index of total effort. Some elements require more resources than others. Also, some states allocated grant dollars to elements not intended to be sustained; these elements are not included in this list. S sustained, NS not sustained. “Other projects” spanned a variety of topics, such as tracking psychotropic prescribing patterns in children or writing QI specifications for managed care contracts

a

State staff stayed in current position or moved to new one in the same agency, remaining closely involved in QI initiatives

b

Developed new administrative entity to continue QI activities for children

c

Retained staff via ongoing contracts with state university or other entity
