- Table 3. Summary of Suggestions for Tool Modifications and Barriers to Use from Qualitative Analysis
Tool Modifications Barriers to Tool Use • More patient resources (eg, tailored patient handouts, a web portal for patients) • Perceptions that few patients have alcohol misuse/abuse problems • Options for targeted use (eg, access to drug dosing in 2 steps, identifying resources) • Multiple competing demands in primary care settings • Enhancing the tool design for interactivity with patients • Lack of time • Integrating the tool with electronic medical records • Issues with technology at the point of care • Completing screening before the physician visit (eg, by patients or other clinical team members) • Improved navigation through the tool so users can see where they are going in the interview • Providing assistance with billing and reimbursement
