Abstract

Abstract Chronic condition management requires strategies to mobilize patients as active partners in their health. Primary care providers (PCPs) play a unique role in influencing patient activation (PA). This practice-based study explored the impact of a PCP-PA–tailored training on clinician adoption of strategies to influence PA. Before training, clinicians completed the Clinician Support for Patient Activation Measure survey, assessing their beliefs in PA, with 55% endorsing the importance of patient knowledge/involvement. In contrast, 1-month after training, over 85% agreed they were confident in recognizing the level of PA, and 71% reported modifying their practice to impact PA. Gains were retained at 3 months posttraining.
