Primary outcomePrimary: PRO Adherence — 50.0; 56.9; 34.9 pct. assigned questionnaires completed
Summary
The main purpose of this research study is to evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of patient- and nurse-directed strategies across in-clinic and remote patient reported outcome (PRO) monitoring settings, using a three-arm pragmatic cluster randomized controlled trial. Additionally, the goal is to evaluate moderators of implementation effects on PRO monitoring.
Eligible patients will be randomized independently to: (1) usual practice (i.e., encounter-based PRO administration via patient portal or tablet); (2) encounter-based PRO monitoring with patient reminders and nurse alerts; or (3) remote PRO monitoring with patient reminders and nurse alerts. The investigators hypothesize that nudges to patients and alerts to nurses will improve patient-level PRO completion and clinician-level PRO engagement.
