The goal of this study is to improve the use of preventive health services by implementing a multilevel intervention to stimulate Annual Wellness Visit use in diverse practices across the United States. This is a stepped wedge cluster randomized controlled trial. The intervention will be implemented in a total of 24 primary care practices over 24 months. Every 3 months, 6 practices will receive the intervention. Electronic health record (EHR) data extractions will be used to collect outcomes in a population cohort of patients. Semi-structured interviews will be conducted with clinicians/staff and patients to assess intervention implementation. The investigators hypothesize that the implementation will increase AWV visit use and consequently, use of preventive health services.
