Slide 32 Lessons Learned Public Health and Private MD Practice operate in different systems. Public Health needs to learn their lifestyle. Persistence! Need for Collaborative Partners Documentation issues

Slide 33 Recommendations A Case Management System as a vehicle to incorporate and provide the “5A’s” A three prong approach for dissemination; one system doesn’t have total responsibility for an intervention Support to Primary Provider System is a necessity in dissemination and implementation of the “5A’s”. The Public Health system needs greater focus on developing strong links with private providers.
