26 Addressing Disparities Due to Low Health Literacy
27 The Way Forward Radical improvements in communication and educational tools Achieve the goal of plain-language writing Identify learning goals and build the knowledge base required for patients to truly understand information needed for decisions Move away from traditional print material (and the electronic equivalent: brochure-ware ) and examine alternative approaches Apply mastery learning principles for material that must be retained Repetition, reinforcement. But, only for essential points. Use technology to support communication before, during, & after visits , telephone, and videoconference visits will increase 27
28 Most Patient Information is Inadequate Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (also known as non-hodgkin s lymphoma, NHL, or sometimes just lymphoma) is a cancer that starts in cells called lymphocytes, which are part of the body s immune system. Lymphocytes are in the lymph nodes and other lymphoid tissues (such as the spleen and bone marrow). American Cancer Society web site, accessed 3/1/

30 Typical Material If you have a lung disease, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma, there are many lung function tests a doctor can do in his or her office or in a lab. Lung function tests, such as measuring peak inspiratory flow rates (PIFR) and peak expiratory flow rates (PEFR), allow the doctor to measure how much air you can take into your lungs with a deep breath (inhale) and how quickly you can expel the air from your lungs (exhale). Lung function tests assist the doctor in diagnosing breathing problems and in monitoring how well your lungs are working. American Lung Association
31 Plain Language If you have a lung disease, such as chronic bronchitis, emphysema, or asthma, your doctor may recommend tests to see how your lungs are working. These tests measure how fast you can breath air in and breath air out. These tests help your doctor understand what is wrong with your lungs. Sometimes, your doctor will repeat the test to follow how well your lungs are working.

40 Multimedia Program to Teach Patients with Low Literacy About Diabetes
41 Building Blocks Required to Understand Blood Sugar Goals Everyone has sugar in their blood It comes from the food you eat: even foods that don t taste sweet have sugar Your body needs sugar to function But too much sugar is bad: that s diabetes Your goal is to have just the right amount of sugar: not too much, not too little
42 What Do Patients Need to Know Before They Are Ready for Key Messages? Your chances of long-term survival with early breast cancer are the same with lumpectomy and XRT and mastectomy Breast cancer starts as a lump in the breast Parts of the lump can break off and spread to the body Only this spread through the body kills women with breast cancer Surgery does not treat cancer that has spread through the body Surgical Treatments have equal survival Informed Decision

49 The Status Quo: Most Info Given at Time of Visit Previsit Visit Postvisit
50 A New Paradigm Health needs assessed before a visit Based on this, patients given materials to prepare them for the discussion. Office tools help providers communicate Patients sent home with summaries Automatic reminders sent to patients
51
52 Before the Appointment Dear Mr. Lucky, Thank you for taking the time to complete your health check. This showed that you have never been screened for colon cancer. Screening for colon cancer can save your life. I sent you some materials to read and a video you can watch about this. You can also come to your visit 15 minutes early and the nurse will show you the video and answer your questions. I will discuss this with you after that. Best regards, Dr. Quick
53
54 After the Appointment Automated Reminders to Reinforce Understanding and Adherence Dear Mr. Lucky, I wanted to tell you again how important it is to be screened for colon cancer. Don t wait! Be sure to schedule your colonoscopy as soon as possible. Remember, this test could save your life. Sincerely, Dr. Quick
55 Technology Available to Assist Communication Patient portal to electronic health record Video monitor in all exam rooms Electronic patient education materials Videoconferencing 55
56 Recommendations Make sure your health educators understand how to identify or develop plain language materials Focus on essential information patients need for self-management and decision-making Give patients educational information prior to visit Use teach back and teach to goal : Check comprehension, correct errors, repeat Reinforce key learning goals through face to face education or media (e.g., , podcasts)

Most patients had a clinic condition for which a diagnostic colonoscopy was done. 69
