NCT ID: NCT04940988 Completed - Prescriptions Clinical Trials

Impacts of a Physician-targeted Price Transparency Tool on Medication Out-of-pocket Costs

Start date: November 18, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this study is to evaluate whether presenting patient out-of-pocket cost information to the provider at the time of prescribing leads to orders for medications with lower out-of-pocket costs. The Real-Time Prescription Benefits (RTPB) tool has been implemented to randomly selected providers across NYU Langone Health's outpatient physician practices. The RTPB tool provides physicians with information about patient out-of-pocket (OOP) cost for medications at the point of outpatient prescribing. OOP is inclusive of any copay, coinsurance, and deductible that the patient owes given their prescription drug benefit plan. If the physician is submitting a prescription order and a clinically-appropriate alternative with a lower OOP cost is available, an alert with OOP cost information for the drug being initially ordered as well as up to three lower-cost alternatives will be displayed. Implementation of this tool will be analyzed to see if it will lead to reduced out-of-pocket costs on ordered medications when alternatives were available. Because effects could vary along many dimensions (e.g., specialty, drug class, insurance type), secondary analyses will be conducted and stratified along such dimensions. Analyses will be conducted at the prescription order level.

NCT ID: NCT02770612 Completed - Pregnancy Clinical Trials

Shared Decision Making for Prescription Opioids After Cesarean Delivery

Start date: April 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The specific aim of this study is to use a shared decision making tool to allow women who have undergone cesarean delivery (CD) to choose the amount of oxycodone the participants will be prescribed at discharge, within a range from 0-40 tablets. The study investigators will document additional information from medical record abstraction (age, race/ethnicity, medical and obstetrical conditions, previous opioid use, date of CD, indication for CD, anesthetic management during CD, duration and complications of CD, length of stay, pain medication use and pain scores on each postoperative day between CD and discharge). The investigators will then follow up with the participants by telephone at two weeks after discharge to assess the amount of opioid used, frequency of prescription refill, disposition of unused medication, and participant satisfaction with their post-cesarean pain control. The investigators hypothesize that the use of a shared decision making tool will decrease the amount of opioid prescribed while still providing participants with satisfactory pain control.

NCT ID: NCT02327975 Completed - Aged Clinical Trials

Prescription of Physical Exercise Through Mobile Application in Elderly

PEME
Start date: November 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Physical inactivity is a health problem that affects people worldwide and has been identified as the fourth largest risk factor for overall mortality (contributing to 6% of deaths globally). Many researchers have tried to increase physical activity (PA) levels through traditional methods without much success. Thus, many researchers are turning to mobile technology as an emerging method for changing health behaviours.The study consists of a physical activity intervention through a mobile application in elderly. The study is a 3x2 model, in which the sample is distributed in three study groups (over 53 years) and were evaluated at 10 weeks from baseline.
