Title: Navigating the Realities of Primary Care Implementation: Practice Engagement Strategies for Quality-of-Life Interventions
Description: This session will discuss strategies for engaging primary care practices in the implementation of patient-centered, quality-of-life clinical issues, such as urinary incontinence (UI), that often lack incentives and must compete with other demands for attention in busy, overburdened primary care settings. Presentations will include two grantees from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality’s EvidenceNOW: Managing Urinary Incontinence Initiative, sharing insights from their work to expand screening and nonsurgical treatment of UI for women in primary care practices.
UI affects more than half of all women, yet fewer than 30% with UI report receiving care for their symptoms, despite the availability of safe and effective front-line treatments. Grantee teams, including one from an integrated health system and another from the VA, will highlight how they used formal and non-traditional practice facilitation approaches, provider education, and care pathway integration strategies to support implementation efforts. Researchers will share study design and methods in implementing research within primary care practices and practice facilitators will share real-world challenges and strategies for addressing low-priority, high-impact conditions like UI amid competing demands. The session will highlight practical lessons for framing and elevating non-incentivized clinical issues in ways that resonate with busy practices and align with broader goals of patient-centered care.
