Pre-post patient survey
RECRUITMENT
The patient survey will be conducted in n = 50 randomly selected intervention GP practices that will be drawn from the population of n = 1057 GPs of the intervention group, stratified by ASHIP. The selected practices will receive the study materials for the two patient surveys pre and post implementation. The recruitment of patients will be done by the practice staff. Patients will be asked to complete an anonymous, paper-based questionnaire after their consultation with the GP. The questionnaires will be handed out in sealed envelopes and can be completed in the GP practice or at home. For the pre-implementation survey, patients who visited the GP practice in the 4–8 weeks before the intervention starts will be recruited. For the post-implementation survey, patients who visit the GP practice in the end of the intervention will be recruited. Each of the GP practices participating in the patient survey is asked to recruit a minimum of n = 25 patients for each survey round (2x n = 1250 patients). To increase the response, the practices receive a material incentive in the form of a gift box after n = 10 questionnaires and for all further questionnaires a financial incentive of 5 € per questionnaire.
