Summary

Asthma is a common disease that affects people of all ages and has significant morbidity and mortality. Poor outcomes and health disparities related to asthma result in part from the difficulty of disseminating new evidence and paradigms of care delivery such as shared decision making (SDM) into clinical practice. This study will evaluate a novel mechanism for dissemination of an evidence-based SDM Toolkit for asthma care in primary care practices. The study is ideally suited to study dissemination methods because it will leverage a partnership between an established consortium of practice based research networks (PBRNs) and an advanced Medicaid Network.

This study will evaluate a novel dissemination process (FLOW) to spread an Asthma Shared Decision Making Toolkit to practices within a Medicaid network using a consortium of practice-based research networks (NCNC). The knowledge gained from this proposal and the partnerships formed between practice-based research networks and NC Medicaid will facilitate widespread dissemination to almost 300 practices.

Asthma Shared Decision Making (SDM) Toolkit

A potential solution to improving asthma outcomes is the use of patient-centered approaches like Shared Decision Making (SDM), In the SDM process, patients and their health care providers are engaged jointly in making decisions about medical tests and treatments. The research team for this proposal was funded by the Agency for Health Care Research and Quality to build, disseminate and evaluate a novel Asthma SDM Toolkit - The Asthma Comparative Effectiveness Study. The Toolkit development was completed in 2010 and has been in evaluation for 2 years. This study will continue to evaluate the Toolkit in a wide array of practices across NC while testing a new method of dissemination.
