Standardized SMA
Patient-driven SMA
The standardized SMA model includes the same TTIM curriculum as in the patient-driven model, but it is delivered in a standardized way (order of and time spent on topics are set) across all participating practices.
In the patient-driven SMA model, patients receive the same TTIM curriculum, but patients at each practice are able to set the order of the curriculum and dictate how long to spend on each topic.
