RATIONALE: "Self-management for people with epilepsy and a history of negative health events" (SMART) is an 8-week, remotely delivered, Epilepsy Self-Management (ESM) program. The ongoing EXPANDing self-management support in healthcare networks (EXPAND) initiative leveraged the Electronic Health Record (EHR) to identify SMART candidates, simplify recruitment, and reduce staff workload.
METHODS: This is an ongoing implementation effort at two Level 4 Epilepsy Centers (Iowa and Cincinnati) using the Epic EHR which follows 9326 People With Epilepsy (PWE). The EHR uses pre-visit screening to identify PWE with a recent seizure; barriers to medication adherence; depression symptoms; age 18-25; or residence in rural regions. At outpatient visits, Epic generated a Best Practice Advisory (BPA). The clinician clicked the BPA to forward a referral or to signal either the patient declined or was not a candidate. The program aims to enroll 560 PWE.
RESULTS: 11 Nurse and Peer Educators received training. Within the first 5 months of BPA activation over 5000 clinician alerts were sent, 360 PWE were referred to SMART. Among 42 PWE who attended at least 1 SMART session, mean age was 35.0 (12.0), 57.5 % (N = 23) women. Mean past 30-day seizure count was 4.3 (10.0).
CONCLUSIONS: The EXPAND initiative, conducted in 2 Midwest U.S. epilepsy centers, is being successfully implemented to provide ESM to PWE. A widely available EHR has facilitated the referral process and remote delivery format allows for reach among diverse communities. This practical approach is amenable to scale-up and may be a model for expanding ESM access to PWE.
