Abstract
Background Little is known about how best to implement SBIRT services in pediatric health care settings or who, optimally, should provide brief interventions when on-site behavioral health is available. The objective of this presentation is to present results from a cluster randomized trial examining implementation of adolescent SBIRT services for substance use within a US federally qualified healthcare system. Two different implementation models for conducting brief interventions (BIs) were compared using randomization at the clinic level to either: the Generalist Model (BI provided by primary care provider) or the Specialist Model (BI provided by behavioral health specialist).

Two different implementation models for conducting brief interventions (BIs) were compared using randomization at the clinic level to either: the Generalist Model (BI provided by primary care provider) or the Specialist Model (BI provided by behavioral health specialist)
Due to the organization transitioning to a new electronic medical record (EMR) in month 6 of the study, data on BA and BI are currently limited to extractions from the new EMR
Summary
Little is known about how best to implement SBIRT services in pediatric health care settings or who, optimally, should provide brief interventions when on-site behavioral health is available.
