Testing the Impact of the MOHR Follow-up Support

Summary

This study will evaluate the impact of 3 different strategies to increase engagement of participants in My Own Health Report (MOHR) and health behavior change activities over time. This study will evaluate the level of engagement, outcomes, cost and cost-effectiveness of these strategies.

Detailed Description

In previous pilot studies was found that patients in clinics randomized to the MOHR intervention vs. control significantly improved physical activity (p \< 0.001) and diet risk behaviors (p \< 0.001), as well as other risk factors. However, two gaps were identified. First, clinic partners voiced a need for a more flexible menu of delivery options to feasibly adopt and sustain the intervention. Second, to achieve sustained behavior change, particularly for those with unmet social needs, clinics need to provide structured follow-up. Structured follow-up bundles are part of the ERIC strategy of "enhance uptake and adherence (among patients)" and "technical assistance." In other work, additional reminders and resources improved outcomes of goal-setting interventions in general and among those with unmet social needs, so the study team operationalized these to be delivered either electronically (Reminder and Resources (R2) Message) or by a person (R2 Navigation). To fill these two gaps, we engaged with a subset of both UCHealth and rural primary care clinics and patient advisors to co-develop a menu of delivery options for the MOHR intervention and also a menu of options for the R2 Message and R2 Navigation strategy bundles. In a randomized comparative effectiveness-implementation trial the study team will enroll 1,000 adult patients with two or more cancer risks (including both insufficient physical activity and fruit/vegetable intake). The study team will evaluate the outcomes of R2 Message and R2 Navigation alone or in combination. Key outcomes include: 1) improvement in behavioral risk factors, 2) representative engagement with R2 Message and R2 Navigation, and 3) improvement in practice value outcomes, including patient experience ratings.
