Timeline
Interventions
To determine if rates of screening and referral to hepatology can be improved through an EMR-based BPA for an appropriate referral.
The only intervention is the Best Practice Alert (BPA). Providers from three departments will be randomized to one of two groups: one that receives a BPA and one that does not. Thereafter, the study will observe patients who fit criteria for NASH referral, as defined by a diagnosis of T2DM and appropriate Fib4 score to determine if they have been referred to Hepatology for assessment.
