End Diagnostic Overshadowing

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Disabilities Multiple

In brief

The goal of this study is to address the critical issue of diagnostic overshadowing by applying the Collective Impact Model40 to co-produce our End Diagnostic Overshadowing program with academic, health systems, health professional, PWDs, family members, and community stakeholders. Through this work, we will identify and address mechanisms that contribute to diagnostic overshadowing and diagnostic errors among people with disabilities. The main questions to answer are whether knowledge about diagnostic errors and confidence will improve with health care providers and professionals involved in diagnostic provesses, whether developed algorithms to identify patients at risk of diagnpstic error will be used, whether there will be change in time to diagnostic evaluation for PWD from the specified 5 population groups and with the specified diagnoses prone to error, and whether changes in usage of CPT Evaluation and Management codes will occur.
