How Can We Help You Integrate Randomization to Improve the Quality of Healthcare Interventions?

Zoom information will be sent to e-HAIL members.

Motivating Question: What are the five rapid cycle randomized interventions that you would most like to run? 

We will briefly discuss Using Rapid Randomized Trials to Improve Health Care Systems to motivate the rest of our discussion. 

What do you want to achieve?

• What interventions are you interested in doing?
• How do you assess if an intervention is successful?
• Do your interventions have the capacity to be randomized?
• What is preventing you from randomizing?
• Are you interested in how social determinants of health fit into healthcare interventions?
• Who would be interested in combining healthcare interventions with randomization?
• How can we collect more ideas for healthcare interventions?
• What strengths does Michigan Medicine have for the area you specialize in?

How randomization infrastructure could help you

• Learn the causal impact of a healthcare intervention
• Link social science datasets to target of interventions based on the social determinants of health
• Implement randomization quickly and easily through the electronic health record (EHR)
• Reduce the need to contact patients for follow up with linkages
• Eliminate the need to collect consent from patients if intervention is for quality improvement
• Enable cost evaluation of interventions through the EHR’s administrative records
• Manage merging of secondary datasets as needed through our honest broker
• Provide IRB templates and offer expert advice on randomization through the EHR
