<unk>  (FIT) is an empirically supported, pantheoretical approach for evaluating and improving the quality and effectiveness of behavioral health services, originally developed by psychologist Scott D. Miller. It involves routinely and formally soliciting<unk>  from clients regarding the therapeutic relationship and progress of care and using the resulting information to inform and tailor service delivery.: FIT utilizes empirically validated, client rated measurement tools at each session. Although any validated measures could be used, due to their brevity, the Outcome Rating Scale (ORS) and Session Rating Scale (SRS) are commonly employed by FIT Practitioners. The ORS measures the client’s therapeutic progress while asking about their level of distress and functioning. The SRS measures the quality of the therapeutic relationship. A number of studies and meta-analyses have demonstrated the benefit of routinely monitoring and using client outcome data and<unk>  to inform care. Studies using the ORS and SRS document: *Improved client outcomes (27%) *Increased client retention *Reduction of deterioration rates (50%) *Shortening the lengths of time spent in care
