Can you further explain this – how does the model do this? Also, how will the two models in the PICOT statement help the patient? It seems the intervention would be referral to a counselor or provider compared to doing nothing. Thoughts?

Can you further explain this – how does the model do this? Also, how will the two models in the PICOT statement help the patient? It seems the intervention would be referral to a counselor or provider compared to doing nothing. Thoughts?
