I am in the Usual Care group. Can my patients and I still get access to the My Health My Choice tool?
It can be disappointing for you and your patients not to be in the Intervention group. We thank you for being in the Usual Care group as it is critical to have a control arm for a robust RCT. The good news is that once you exit out of the study, we can send you a link to the My Health My Choice tool to use. Your patients who participate in the study will be offered the same opportunity. Thank you for your patience with the scientific process. :)
How will you protect patient confidentiality and my data?
How will you protect patient confidentiality and my data?
We will use REDCap (Research Electronic Data Capture), which securely collects and stores data from all participants, including patients and providers. If you do an optional exit interview, the interview transcript will not have any words, names, or details that can be linked to you. Access to your data is restricted to study team members. All study findings will be reported or published as group data, not individual data.
