@rrosin @PennMedicine Thanks Roy, team effort! And it wouldn't be possible without your leadership of @PM_Innovation along with @76Dalton's + @PENNWaytoHealth to have the necessary infrastructure to carry out this work

New RCT out today in @JAMANetworkOpen led by @oakes_ah on the power of #Defaults. Changing email invitations for a COVID-19 Surveillance Testing Program from "invited to participate" to "you have been conditionally enrolled" increased participation by 22% https://t.co/eY3iS5MQV2

This post focuses on the design & launch of COVID SAFE. As the University considered re-opening, ongoing testing was a concern. This is a project that used Saliva based testing & leveraged nudges and innovation. https://t.co/cfrlQP6ObP @miteshspatel @PennNudgeUnit @oakes_ah

[Way to Health @PENNWaytoHealth]

While Watch got subjective data, the Pulse program focused on objective dyspnea data esp. in the ED setting. The intersection led to the PCORI award. Analysis is pending and to be published shortly. https://t.co/jmgnRMyU4E. @katleemd @neda_khan_ @PennMedCDH @PennMedicine

The fun thing about working @PennMedicine is the intersection of research & practice. This post is abt research to identify ways to vaccinate patients against the flu with potential use in COVID vaccine rollout. Careful word choice increased uptake by 11%. https://t.co/UKTYSHj0my

[Way to Health @PENNWaytoHealth]

2nd in the blog post series. https://t.co/4CWdgEV7mQ on Penn Medicine's community vaccination clinics. Led by @katleemd @Lauren_M_Hahn @neda_khan_ @mkopinsky and many more. It indeed takes a village.
- 2800+ vaccinated
- No lines / wait times
- 96 NPS!

[Kathleen Lee, MD @katleemd]

1/ 4wks & 2800+ 1st doses💪🏾across W & SW Philly later... we came back to where we started. 550 2nd doses administered 🩹 with an NPS of 96. No show rate? < 0.4%.

When health system & community leaders come together to prioritize & resource #equity, *everything* is possible.

[Way to Health @PENNWaytoHealth]

Amazing work done by in iterations led by @katleemd to leverage tech and switch visits from hospital to home. Impact on outcomes and quality of life are very significant.https://t.co/QNwwhy1Mtg. @PENNWaytoHealth @PennMedicine @PM_Innovation @neda_khan_ @Lauren_M_Hahn @PennMedCDH

This is the first of a series of blog posts on W2H's response to the pandemic within Penn Medicine. This first one focused on a program called COVID Watch which is a remote monitoring program we set up at the height of the pandemic and is still ongoing. https://t.co/dGIDLQTX0I

New Mega RCT testing >20 nudges for flu vaccination, posted online today ahead of publication: https://t.co/4IapilxzHb Conducted via @ChangeBcfg & @PennNudgeUnit at 2 health systems & @Walmart with @katy_milkman @angeladuckw & many others. Key finding: default framing worked best

[Katy Milkman @katy_milkman]

We just released 2 landmark studies testing dozens of SMS interventions sent to ~800,000 ppl encouraging flu vaccinations at @Walmart, @PennMedicine & @Geisinger. The top performer lifted vaccination rates by 11%, conveying shots were "reserved for you." https://t.co/3c8KlUVON0
