“The strategies and approaches that are described in the Promising Approaches Series were identified by key state and local informants who responded to the HCRTP’s state surveys and who were interviewed during site visits to states for the HCRTP’s impact analyses. Once promising approaches and features of managed care systems were identified through these methods, members of the HCRTP team, including researchers, family members, and practitioners, engaged in a number of additional methods to gather more detailed information about identified strategies within particular topical areas. Site visits were conducted in some cases, during which targeted interviews were held with key stakeholders, such as system purchasers and managers, managed care organization representatives, providers, family members, and representatives of other child-serving agencies. In other cases, telephone interviews were held with key state and local officials and family members to learn about promising strategies. Supporting documentation was gathered and reviewed to supplement the data gathered through the site visits and telephone interviews.”
