Summary

This trial will test whether team- and practice leadership-level implementation strategies can help increase the use and uptake of a chronic care model-based intervention in diverse pediatric primary care offices.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for caregivers with a child aged 5-12 showing behavior problems, and staff at selected pediatric practices in PA. Staff roles include primary care providers, care managers, medical directors/senior leaders, and practice managers.

What is being tested?

The study tests if extra support strategies for teams and leadership can improve the use of DOCC—an effective treatment program for childhood behavior issues and ADHD—in various pediatric offices.

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial focuses on implementation strategies rather than medications or direct treatments, it does not have typical side effects like those associated with drugs or medical procedures.
