| RE-AIM Domain | Study Quantitative Assessment | Previously described implementation barriers for RAPICE assessment | RAPICE participant observation questions | Potential Policy Summit Questions/ Themes Derived from RAPICE |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Reach | • n enrolled divided by N in target population | • Prior studies, describe patients who prefer not to have care coordinated | • What factors explain site Reach variations? • What are the reasons patients opt out of the trial? • What are the barriers to enrolling patients? |
• Does Reach/breadth of applicability/ of the intervention warrant organizational, regional or national policy requirements? |
| Effectiveness | • Comparison of Intervention vs Control outcomes | • Lack of patient engagement • Lack of ability of team to implement intervention elements |
• What factors explain variations in effectiveness across sites? | • Are there policy changes that occurred during the study that introduced variability in the intervention delivery? • Do these policy changes differentially impact control versus intervention conditions? |
| Adoption | • % Provider and/or clinical service participation | • Negative staff attitudes toward system change • Lack of staff/peers with adequate skills to intervention |
• What impacts provider participation? • What impacts staff/peer baseline aptitudes and skill acquisition? |
• Will there be sites that spontaneously adopt the intervention without policy requirements? • What characterizes these innovator/early adopter sites? |
| Implementation | • Documentation of intervention adaptations across sites • Quantification of provider and site variability in the use of collaborative care or care transition CPT codes |
• Implementation of intervention strains existing resources • Lack of access related to adequate provider CC supervision and support |
• What were the barriers to implementation of the intervention • What was the nature of the adaptations to the intervention that occurred over time? • Why did adaptations to the intervention occur? |
• What organizational, regional and national policies might assist with site implementation of the intervention? |
| Maintenance | • Maintenance of intervention as delivered in the investigation (Yes/No) • If only partially maintained quantification of adaptations to the intervention |
• Lack of ongoing funding as a barrier to sustainability | • What are modifications made by providers after the study? • In what form will the components of the intervention be sustained? • What are the barriers to maintaining the peer intervention program? |
• What policy levers such as health care system mandates or CPT code availability might facilitate site/ organizational maintenance of the intervention? |
