Sponsor's own description

Decreasing utilization of the Emergency Department (ED) is a priority for the system. Often, ED visits can be avoided if patients contact Geisinger first to get appropriate direction for their concern or are otherwise better informed about reasons to visit the ED vs. urgent care or primary care facilities. The study team is working to reduce ED utilization by including additional information in adult outpatient After Visit Summaries (AVSs). The study will involve will involve A/B testing different AVS versions, including 1) a version that encourages patients to contact Geisinger via different contact methods, 2) a version that includes a map to the patient's closest ConvenientCare location and accompanying information about ConvenientCare, and 3) a version that includes a self-triage guide. A control group will receive the current standard AVS. Analysis results will be assessed to determine which version is most effective at reducing ED use.
