Study Summary
Busy Primary Care providers (PCPs) have complex practices with many competing demands, making it difficult to improve their HL identification rates. Little research has been conducted to identify effective approaches to address the poor PCP knowledge and provide tools for them to better identify/refer patients with HL for appropriate intervention. Current data suggests there is a critical need to redesign how PCPs deliver hearing health care (HHC) by developing focused educational programs and simple clinical management tools to help them integrate HHC into their practices. To address this need, this study will educate providers on hearing loss (HL) screening/treatment as well as create a Best Practice Alert (BPA), or clinical prompt, that is configured for maximal effectiveness in reminding PCPs to ask their patients if they think they have a HL. This combination of education for providers and clinical reminder could help increase HL screening rates but how much is not clear. This 5 year R21/R33 study funded by National Institute of Deafness and Communicative Disorders seeks to provide detailed understanding of both how educating providers on HL and the use of an effective BPA affects HL screening rates and identification for people with mild to moderate hearing loss.
Primary Outcome
Baseline data on providers and the clinics will be compared to post-intervention data to determine if hearing loss screening referrals improved; Investigators will also do a step-wedged analysis to look at differences between clinics that have gone live with the BPA and those who have not yet gone live.
