Prescribing technology to increase uptake of depression treatment in primary care: a pre-implementation focus group study of SOVA (Supporting Our Valued Adolescents).
Supporting Our Valued Adolescents (SOVA) is a web-based technology intervention designed to increase depression and anxiety treatment uptake by adolescents in the context of an anonymous peer community with an accompanying website for parents. With a goal of informing the design of a hybrid effectiveness-implementation randomized controlled trial, we conducted a pre-implementation study in two primary care practices to guide implementation strategy development. We conducted focus groups with primary care providers (PCPs) at three different timepoints with PCPs (14 total) from two community practices.

Capturing relevant patient data in clinical encounters through integration of an electronic patient-reported outcome system into routine primary care in a Boston Community Health Center: development and implementation study.
This study’s goal was to implement an electronic patient-reported outcome (ePRO) system that administers key health questionnaires in an urban community health center in Boston, Massachusetts. The system was integrated with the EHR so that medical providers could review and arbitrate patient responses in during the patient’s visit. Findings showed that this program demonstrated that implementation of an ePRO system in a primary care setting is feasible, allowing for facilitation of patient-provider communication and care.

e-Consult implementation success: lessons from 5 county-based delivery systems.
This study evaluated organizational factors for e-consult implementation across five publicly financed, county-based health systems in California. Health system leaders whose systems received grant funding to plan and implement e-consult were interviewed to discuss platform selection, electronic health record compatibility, primary care clinician and specialist opinions, and project governance. Findings showed that three of the 5 systems successfully implemented e-consults. Existing primary care clinician-specialist relationships emerged as the strongest facilitator. E-consult-EHR technology integration was also important. These findings add to existing e-consult implementation literature that emphasizes reimbursement and leadership champions.
