Inclusion Criteria

Inclusion criteria for recruitment to the study are primary care clinics that are:
1.Located in the Eastern Melbourne, South Eastern Melbourne, or Gippsland Primary Health Network (Victoria, Australia); and
2.Participate in the POLAR data-sharing research program; and
3.Use either Best Practice or Medical Director (Clinical) for electronic medical record collection and management; and
4.Have over 1,800 active patients, using Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) definition (patient has attended the clinic at least three times in the past two years). This minimum patient number threshold was chosen as it represents the lower bound of the interquartile range of active patients per clinic.

Recruiting a clinic to the project will also effectively recruit all adult patients who have an electronic medical record at that clinic, as this study is underpinned by the use of electronic medical records to drive the intervention.
