Implementing a Group Physical Therapy Program for Veterans (GroupPT): Function QUERI 3.0

Foundational Support uses the Replicating Effective Program (REP) implementation strategy and includes 5 elements that were developed and tested in our prior Function QUERI work: shareholder engagement, Group PT toolkit, Online shared resources (SharePoint) access for clinical program training materials, data reports to assist sites with tracking their data, and Diffusion Networks to promote peer-to-peer sharing and implementation support.

The Reach+Equity bundle will include the same activities as foundational support plus the Reach+Equity bundle activities which include: 1) external facilitation (provide an outside perspective to help sites identify barriers, develop effective strategies, and navigate complex change processes particularly through the lens of achieving equitable reach); 2) equity in implementation toolkit (guide that supports awareness and consideration of health equity during the implementation process); and 3) equity-focused data-driven monitoring (inform progress regarding equitable reach-related goals).
