The Team-based Care Change Package Summary outlines evidence-based, high impact changes and potentially better practices that have been shown to result in improved team-based care. It also contains some suggested measures for tracking progress and tools that can help teams to implement new strategies.  

These change ideas can serve as a menu of options for clinic teams to consider. As clinic teams progress, they will likely identify other change ideas to try that make sense in their local contexts.
