“…Research is also needed to evaluate how stepwise approach compare with—or fit into—other models of care. Stepped care has received less attention in the behavioral medicine and mental health research and practice communities than collaborative care (e.g., Bekelman et al, 2018; Carney et al, 2016; Huffman et al, 2014; Katon et al, 2010; Rollman et al, 2009, 2017, 2018, 2021), integrated care (Bartels et al, 2018; Baxter et al, 2018; Leung et al, 2019), and multidisciplinary precision medicine (Boland et al, 2019; Chen et al, 2018; Cuijpers et al, 2016; Lenze et al, 2020). However, these approaches may be compatible with stepped care; in fact, hybrid combinations of stepped care and other models of care have already been tested (e.g., Edmond et al, 2018; Horne et al, 2020; Huffman et al, 2014; Richards, 2012; Rollman et al, 2009, 2017, 2021).…”
