NCT ID NCT05563415
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 09, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests whether a toolkit that combines electronic health record tools with practice redesign strategies can increase the use of Medicare annual wellness visits and preventive services like cancer screenings and vaccines. Researchers are rolling out the toolkit in 16 primary care practices across the U.S. and tracking outcomes in over 13,000 patients aged 50 and older with Medicare. The goal is to see if this approach helps more people get the preventive care they need.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Medicare AWV Practice Redesign Toolkit (behavioral intervention using electronic health record tools and practice redesign strategies)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this toolkit could help more older adults get recommended preventive services like cancer screenings and vaccines during their annual wellness visits.
- What could go wrong
- This is a behavioral intervention study, not a drug trial, so results depend on how well practices adopt the toolkit. It may not work in all practice settings or lead to lasting changes.
