ATLS region chiefs and country directors reported a variety of demand-side incentives that may facilitate the promulgation of ATLS. Actionable steps include: (i) shift incentivization from ATLS course completion to maintenance of verification; (ii) develop an incentive toolkit of best practices to support implementation; and (iii) engage leadership stakeholders to use demand-side incentives to improve the training and capabilities of the providers they oversee to care for the injured.
