Participant Flow

Providers were not enrolled in the study. The investigators collected outcome data about perceived impressions / satisfaction with the intervention, from providers, but did not collect any information about their baseline characteristics (these were providers who provided this intervention as part of routine clinical care in an implementation pilot but who were not engaged in research) and do not consider them an arm in this intervention or those outcomes to be part of this clinical trial
