An exploratory mixed-methods study using the ELICIT framework to identify stakeholder-informed implementation strategies for a population health platform.
Article in BMC health services research, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundGARDE is an open-source software platform that supports population health management interventions including hereditary cancer cohort identification, patient engagement, education, and access to genetic testing services. To facilitate GARDE implementation, we applied the Evaluation in Life Cycle of Information Technology framework to 1) identify barriers and facilitators to the implementation of GARDE at five healthcare systems in differing implementation phases, 2) develop implementation strategies to address barriers, and 3) prioritize implementation strategies for implementation toolkit development based on partner-rated feasibility and importance.
methodsWe facilitated focus group discussions and individual in-depth interviews (n = 17) at five healthcare systems that have implemented or are implementing GARDE to identify contextual determinants of implementation and strategies to address implementation barriers. We relied on the Evaluation in Life Cycle of Information Technology framework to develop the interview guide and analyze data using rapid qualitative techniques. Our team identified implementation strategies in response to reported barriers. GARDE implementers were surveyed to assess the feasibility and importance of implementation strategies.
resultsParticipants at all healthcare systems identified multiple GARDE implementation barriers and facilitators, largely focusing on information technology needs to effectively implement an electronic health record-integrated innovation. Eight implementation strategies were identified as both important and feasible to address identified barriers.
conclusionsPopulation health management innovations are a potential solution to healthcare system challenges through cohort identification, patient engagement, and access to relevant healthcare services, but their implementation must meet multiple requirements. This study of an EHR-integrated population health management platform implementation used an Evaluation in Life Cycle of Information Technology -grounded approach to identify implementation barriers and facilitators and implementation strategies to address barriers. An implementation toolkit is being refined to support the implementation and dissemination of population health management platforms.
