What patients want to ask their doctors: Data analysis from Question Builder, an online question prompt list tool

摘要

Objectives: Question prompt lists (QPLs) are one strategy to increase patient participation in healthcare decisions but the extent to which consumers might access them in the 'real world' is largely unknown. This study measured usage of a passively-promoted, government-funded web-based patient-generated QPL tool, called Question Builder (Australia) (QB) hosted on healthdirect.gov.au , a consumer health information website.
