TITLE: Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) COVID-19 Primary Care Learning Community Participant Survey

GENERIC CLEARANCE UNDER OMB#: 0935-0179 EXP. DATE: 11/30/2023

ABSTRACT:

AHRQ held a series of eight Learning Community webinar sessions between December 2020 and November 2021 to discuss and learn about challenges and innovative work being done across the country to address the needs of primary care practices. The session formats encouraged interaction and peer-to-peer learning among attendees. A variety of formats were used, including guest speakers; small group discussions segmented by audience, role, or speaker topic; short 5-minute speaker presentations; longer guest speaker presentations; panels with Q&A; and large group discussions that included share outs from small groups and reactions to guest speaker presentations. Session topics included 1) whole-person care during COVID-19, 2) the role of practice facilitation in supporting primary care practices during COVID-19, 3) role of primary care in promoting vaccine confidence, 4) experiences with supporting primary care and COVID-19 vaccination efforts, 5) use of telehealth in primary care, 6) integrating primary care and public health in response to COVID-19, 7) integrating behavioral health and primary care during COVID-19, and 8) supporting well-being during COVID-19 and beyond.

To assess whether the webinar sessions met the needs and expectations of the Learning Community members, AHRQ would like to obtain feedback from participants who attended one or more of the webinar sessions. We will administer a short, web-based survey to collect feedback on which session(s) they attended; which benefits they may have received through their participation in the learning community; how valuable they found each learning community activity; and whether they would be interested in participating in any future learning community activities. The information will be used by AHRQ to inform any potential future Primary Learning Community activities.
