Name
Evaluating the Reach of Primary Care Behavioral Health in a Family Medicine Setting using an Implementation Science Framework
Description

Increasing the capacity and reach of primary care behavioral health (PCBH) is critical to the success of the program. Programs can use the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation and Maintenance (RE-AIM) framework to evaluate implementation efforts. This presentation will introduce the framework and apply this framework to evaluate the reach of PCBH in a family medicine clinic. The study uses a retrospective cross-sectional design and reports on electronic health record data over a six-month implementation period (July 2024 – December 2024) to assess how many individuals the PCBH program reached and potentially could reach. The presentation will share study findings and support other programs in generalizing the study methods to their practice context.
