Priorities for Patient-Centered Outcomes Research: The Views of Minority and Underserved Communities.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To learn how minority and underserved communities would set priorities for patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR).

Data sources

Sixteen groups (n = 183) from minority and underserved communities in two states deliberated about PCOR priorities using the simulation exercise CHoosing All Together (CHAT). Most participants were minority, one-third reported income <$10,000, and one-fourth reported fair/poor health.

Design

Academic-community partnerships adapted CHAT for PCOR priority setting using existing research agendas and interviews with community leaders, clinicians, and key informants.

Data collection

Tablet-based CHAT collected demographic information, individual priorities before and after group deliberation, and groups' priorities.
