Abstract
Most adults in the United States obtain health information online. It is crucial that online patient education materials (PEMs) are easily interpreted in order to successfully impact patients’ health behaviors. This is especially important for sunscreen PEMs, as proper use is associated with decreased risks of melanoma, non-melanoma skin cancers, and photoaging. American Medical Association recommends that PEMs be written at the sixth grade or lower reading level. We analyzed the readability of PEMs for sunscreen in order to identify opportunities to optimize PEMs.
