Provider participation and input are critical to the success of many health information technology (IT) research projects. Thus, soliciting and maintaining the attention of providers is of key importance. Provider involvement is necessary for many research interventions, including workflow and system modification, patient surveys and data collection, data integration, clinical decision support research, and patient care plan tracking.
The webinar focused on effective recruitment, engagement and retention of providers involved in research projects. Topics for discussion included: (1) identifying and targeting priority providers; (2) overcoming provider resistance to involvement in research projects; (3) maintaining involvement from providers during the course of the research study; and (4) working with providers based in community settings and academic medical centers.
