The results of clinician-focused implementation strategies on uptake and outcomes of Measurement-Based Care (MBC) in general mental health care

BACKGROUND: Measurement-Based Care (MBC) is the routine administration of measures, clinicians’ review of the feedback and discussion of the feedback with their clients, and collaborative evaluation of the treatment plan. Although MBC is a promising way to improve outcomes in clinical practice, the...

description BACKGROUND: Measurement-Based Care (MBC) is the routine administration of measures, clinicians’ review of the feedback and discussion of the feedback with their clients, and collaborative evaluation of the treatment plan. Although MBC is a promising way to improve outcomes in clinical practice, the implementation of MBC faces many barriers, and its uptake by clinicians is low. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether implementation strategies that were developed with clinicians and aimed at clinicians had an effect on (a) clinicians’ uptake of MBC and (b) clients’ outcomes of MBC. METHODS: We used an effectiveness-implementation hybrid design based on Grol and Wensing’s implementation framework to assess the impact of clinician-focused implementation strategies on both clinicians’ uptake of MBC and outcomes obtained with MBC for clients in general mental health care. We hereby focused on the first and second parts of MBC, i.e., the administration of measures and use of feedback. Primary outcome measures were questionnaire completion rate and discussion of the feedback with clients. Secondary outcomes were treatment outcome, treatment length, and satisfaction with treatment. RESULTS: There was a significant effect of the MBC implementation strategies on questionnaire completion rate (one part of clinicians’ uptake), but no significant effect on the amount of discussion of the feedback (the other part of clinicians’ uptake). Neither was there a significant effect on clients’ outcomes (treatment outcome, treatment length, and satisfaction with treatment). Due to various study limitations, the results should be viewed as exploratory. CONCLUSIONS: Establishing and sustaining MBC in real-world general mental health care is complex. This study helps to disentangle the effects of MBC implementation strategies on differential clinician uptake, but the effects of MBC implementation strategies on client outcomes need further examination.
