About this study

The primary objective of this study is to help patients compare the benefits of various preventive care services, based on their individual risk factors (such as smoking status, obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, etc.). A tailored decision tool will be provided to each participant during primary care appointments to facilitate discussion between the participant and his/her provider regarding prioritizing preventive service recommendations.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Interest in Individualized Preventive Care Recommendations.

    Measured by individualized preventive service recommendations, tailored to patient's specific medical conditions. Measured by surveys.

    Survey question: "Overall, how helpful did you find the written materials (handouts)?" Ten point scale (minimum 1, maximum 10, higher score is better outcome)

    Measured: Within 3 days of index primary care appointment.

  2. Interest in Individualized Preventive Care Recommendations.

    Measured by individualized preventive service recommendations, tailored to patient's specific medical conditions. Measured by surveys.

    Survey question: "In the future, would you like to see updated written materials (handouts)?" Ten point scale (minimum 1, maximum 10, higher score is better outcome)

    Measured: Within 3 days of index primary care appointment.

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Use of Shared Decision Making.

    Measured by surveys. Survey metric: Shared Decision Making (SDM)-Q-9 validated scale, converted to 100 point denominator 100 point scale (minimum 1, maximum 100, higher score is better outcome)

    Measured: Within 3 days of index primary care appointment.

  2. Patient Readiness to Change Health Behaviors.

    Measured by surveys. Proportion of top-3 individualized preventive service recommendations ready to change over next 1 month Numerator: Number of top-3-ranked recommendations with score >=6 out of 7 on Likert scale for readiness to change over next 1 month (minimum=1, maximum=7, higher score was better) Denominator: The number of individualized preventive service recommendations provided to a patient or 3, whichever was lower

    Measured: Within 3 days of index primary care appointment.

  3. Patient Readiness to Change Health Behaviors

    Measured by surveys Proportion of top-3 individualized preventive service recommendations ready to change over next 2-6 months Numerator: Number of top-3-ranked recommendations with score >=6 out of 7 on Likert scale for readiness to change over next 2-6 months (minimum=1, maximum=7, higher score was better) Denominator: The number of individualized preventive service recommendations provided to a patient or 3, whichever was lower

    Measured: Within 3 days of index primary care appointment

  4. Patient Readiness to Change Health Behaviors.

    Measured by surveys Proportion of bottom-3 individualized preventive service recommendations ready to change over next 1 month Numerator: Number of bottom-3-ranked recommendations with score >=6 out of 7 on Likert scale for readiness to change over next 1 month (minimum=1, maximum=7, higher score was better) Denominator: The number of individualized preventive service recommendations provided to a patient or 3, whichever was lower

    Measured: Within 3 days of index primary care appointment

  5. Patient Readiness to Change Health Behaviors

    Measured by surveys. Proportion of bottom-3 individualized preventive service recommendations ready to change over next 2-6 months Numerator: Number of bottom-3-ranked recommendations with score >=6 out of 7 on Likert scale for readiness to change over next 2-6 months (minimum=1, maximum=7, higher score was better) Denominator: The number of individualized preventive service recommendations provided to a patient or 3, whichever was lower

    Measured: Within 3 days of index primary care appointment

  6. Decisional Comfort.

    Measured by surveys. Survey metric: Decisional Conflict Scale (validated scale), converted to 100 point denominator 100 point scale (minimum 1, maximum 100, higher score is better outcome)

    Measured: Within 3 days of index primary care appointment.

  7. Preventive Care Outcomes for Patients.

    Number of participants with at least 1 follow-up encounter during the 1 year after an index encounter.

    Measured: Within 1 year of index primary care appointment.
