About this trial

Specialty concussion care can help youth recover more quickly but many youth face barriers to accessing concussion specialists. A care delivery model whereby concussion specialists are available to co-manage injuries with primary care pediatricians via telehealth can close the gap that currently exists in delivering specialty care to more youth. The long-term objective and intended impact of this project is to disseminate a care delivery model and manualized behavioral health intervention that can be widely deployed to make specialty concussion care accessible to more youth and earlier following their head injury.
