Summary

The study objective is to conduct a pragmatic deprescribing intervention for people with Alzheimer's Disease or Related Dementia with Multiple Chronic Conditions (ADRD-MCC) so that these patients are on 'just right' medication regimens.

The intervention will be a pragmatic, cluster randomized trial of medication optimization through increased awareness of deprescribing for the ADRD-MCC population. It will be delivered in primary care at the clinic level with a wait-list control design. As a pragmatic intervention it is designed to be relatively simple, have broad inclusion/exclusion criteria, and be implemented across the Kaiser Permanente Colorado (KPCO) system. The intervention will have two components: a patient/care partner component focused on education and activation about potential deprescribing including sending out a brochure, and a clinician component focused on increasing clinician awareness through monthly Tip Sheets about options and processes for deprescribing in the ADRD-MCC population linked to upcoming visits. The intervention will take place at 18 primary care offices in the Denver-Boulder service delivery area with 9 as initial intervention sites and 9 as delayed intervention sites.
