The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed the delivery of ambulatory care in the US. One of the most notable changes to ambulatory care practice has been the rapid expansion of telemedicine services. Such expansion sought to preserve access to necessary care for patients while protecting them and their clinicians from undue risk of exposure to COVID-19. This multiphase, Veteran-centered approach to developing and evaluating a novel behavioral intervention to provide full cost transparency to Veterans will achieve the following aims: Aim 1: Create an automated system to generate personalized estimates of Veterans' full costs (travel costs, time costs, and out-of-pocket costs) for different types of primary care visits. Aim 2: Develop and refine a novel behavioral intervention that will help Veterans and their clinicians use personalized information about the full costs of different types of primary care visits in the VHA. Aim 3: Evaluate the acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary effectiveness of the developed intervention to Veterans and their clinicians.
