The Consultation Program Leaves Skill Behind
Pediatricians trained through collaborative care became more able to manage anxiety and depression independently.
Summary
Pediatricians trained through collaborative care became more able to manage anxiety and depression independently.
Lurie Children's evaluated its Mood, Anxiety, ADHD Collaborative Care program and found participating pediatricians were more likely to diagnose and treat anxiety and depression without continued specialist support. The capacity-building model addresses a specialist shortage, but the institutional study does not establish that every practice can reproduce the same result without comparable training and support.
