Feasibility and Efficacy Study for a Pre-visit Lab Protocol for Adult Medicine Physicals

This is a research study evaluating the implementation of a clinic workflow to encourage pre-visit laboratory testing, such as blood work. The purpose of this research is to understand provider and patient satisfaction with clinic workflows to support pre-visit laboratory tests (blood work) for annual physical and wellness visits. Providers and staff at participating sites will be approached to fill out an anonymous survey regarding experiences with implementation of the pre-visit laboratory testing workflow. Additional data from NorthShore's Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) will be collected to assess the pre-lab test rate before implementation, at 6 months, and 12 months, in addition to provider and staff time efficiencies and patient satisfaction as assessed by surveys.

Inclusion Criteria:Aged 18 or older.Patients must have had an annual physical/ wellness visit within 30 days of completing the survey.Patient/ providers willing to complete the survey.Exclusion Criteria:• Participants younger than 18 years of age.
