A Clinician-Patient Dual Behavior Change Framework to Leverage Informed Digital Nudges to Reduce Hospital Readmissions and Improve Patient Outcomes: A Trial for Scalable Strategy to Reduce Readmissions (PREVENT-R)

Sponsor: Yale University

Summary

The PREVENT-R trial will evaluate an intervention targeting both clinician and patient behavior. The clinician-focused piece consists of an electronic medical record-based digital nudge presented to emergency department clinicians caring for eligible older adults at high risk of readmission. The nudge is intended to prompt clinicians to consider referral to the Service Navigator Program from the Agency on Aging of South Central Connecticut for patients with needs that may be addressed through community-based services and supports. The study will evaluate whether these mechanisms (clinician referral and patient program acceptance behavior) are associated with subsequent Emergency Department (ED) revisits and 30-day hospital re-admissions.
