Study design and approach
-
1. The full application submitted by the OHT, to identify the initial plans of the OHT, including Year 1 target populations, attributed population size, and partners;
-
2. The OHT website (if available), to identify any updates on work related to Year 1 targets;
-
3. A Google search with the name of the OHT (e.g., “Burlington OHT”), to identify any updates related to Year 1 targets that may not have been provided on the OHT website. We limited this search to the first five pages of results.
