Promoting Patient Engagement in Clinical Preventive Services: Evaluating the Use of Healthfinder

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Health Knowledge, Attitudes, Practice

In brief

Clinical preventive services (CPS) are fundamental to early disease detection and improvement of health outcomes but are often poorly understood and utilized by patients. Myhealthfinder is a web-based tool developed by the Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (https://healthfinder.gov). This study tests the "prescription" of myhealthfinder to engage patients in CPS, improve patient-clinician communication and increase uptake of CPS.
