This Project Grant award, funded by the Department of Health and Human Services' National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 Aging Research), is for a project titled "Improving Integration of Treatment Burden Information in Primary Care for Older Adults with Multiple Chronic Conditions." The $107,330 award to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (BIDMC) will support two key objectives: 1) Developing a scalable model to estimate treatment burden scores for older adults with multiple chronic conditions using Medicare claims data, and 2) Conducting qualitative interviews with primary care providers, patients aged 65+ with multiple chronic conditions, and their caregivers to understand perspectives on assessing and managing treatment burden in primary care. The project aims to establish a foundation for integrating treatment burden information into primary care for this population, addressing a critical need identified in current guidelines.
