A Multifaceted Technical Assistance Strategy to Facilitate Measurement Delivery in Coordinated Specialty Care

Abstract

In recent years, coordinated specialty care (CSC) providers have worked to harmonize and deliver data collection measures across programs so that they can provide data that enable measurement-informed care. However, the strategies that can effectively support the integration of a core assessment battery in clinical care remain unclear. This column presents an evaluation of a multifaceted technical assistance strategy for the delivery and completion of an assessment battery in nine CSC programs (N=247 clients). The findings suggest that a multifaceted technical assistance strategy can effectively support the integration of a comprehensive assessment battery in the care delivered by providers. Similar technical assistance strategies may assist CSC providers as they move toward providing data-driven care in an effort to improve quality of care.
