Summary

In spite of the impact on veteran�s health status and treatment cost, depression is under-diagnosed and under-treated. The goal of this study is to learn how to implement a previously tested, effective collaborative care model for improving the quality of depression care across multiple Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISNs). To achieve this goal, we are conducting a randomized controlled trial of evidence-based quality improvement (EBQI), a dissemination method that relies on expert design and local implementation of evidence-based practice interventions. We hypothesize that EBQI will result in increased rates of assessment and appropriate management of depression. Results will be useful in designing realistic chronic care programs and performance measures for continuing care improvement.
