Less-engaged clinicians only received feedback reports but did not engage fully with remaining intervention components. Module 1 contained online communication and antibiotic prescribing tutorials and webinars and an individualized antibiotic prescribing feedback report. Module 2 contained 2 online communication booster video vignettes and an antibiotic prescribing feedback report. Module 3 contained 1 communication booster video vignette and 2 antibiotic prescribing feedback reports.
