It is true that the time and intensity needed to transform care is a challenge when conducting program evaluation in primary care settings. It takes time for practices to transform, and for those transformations to alter outcomes. Many studies suggest it will take a minimum of 2 or 3 years for the motivating practices to really transform care. If the intervention is short or it is not substantial, it will be difficult to show changes in outcomes. In addition, a short or minor intervention may only generate small effects on outcomes, which are hard to detect.

As is common knowledge, a CSSA applicant must pass both the asset and income tests. Can the two tests be seen as resources or activities when using the logical model?

Integrated Employment Assistance Programme for Self-reliance (IEAPS) statistics are being read by me. And I discovered that between April 1, 2017, and March 31, 2020, 25% of service receivers had found job or had gone back to regular education for at least one month. Then, may I declare that it is a software output?

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
