Abstract

Better Access is achieving reductions in symptoms and improvements in functioning and wellbeing for the majority of consumers. A minority of consumers do not have these sorts of positive outcomes, however, and further work is required to understand why. Routine measurement of outcomes - particularly consumer-rated outcomes - would enable ongoing monitoring of the extent to which Better Access is achieving its goals.
