Plan for Pilot Testing a WRFIS-Based Readiness Metric

Step	Description	Goal
1	Assess current extent to which the WRFIS is used for Army BH care	Determine the level of effort that will be needed to reach full implementation
2	Conduct descriptive analyses of existing WRFIS data	Evaluate psychometric properties of the WRFIS among soldiers who receive BH care and inform outcome metric specifications
3	Define detailed metric specifications	Develop detailed outcome metric specifications to increase the likelihood that the metric meets evaluation criteria (e.g., scientific acceptability)
4	Pilot test metric	Assess whether the metric provides useful data on readiness and can be used to monitor and improve BH care
