Qualitative analysis of interview data reveals that huddle adoption enhances relational coordination (RC), thus highlighting the importance of both coaching interventions in fostering proactive behavior and the building of a work environment aligned toward shared goals. The findings affirm RC as a dynamic change model, examining its interplay with organizational processes and structure. The study underscores the significance of adaptations in work processes, the role of informal boundary spanners in facilitating cross-departmental coordination, and structural changes that increase autonomy for low-power actors.

Using literature review and expert consultation, we identify key design choices for RA in the context of provider payment and subsequently categorize these choices along two dimensions: (a) the choice of risk adjusters and (b) the choice of payment weights.
