Brief Summary:
The aim of the study is to determine if In-person interpreters increases patient satisfaction of URGYN office visits compared to the use of phone interpreter services for Limited English Proficient (LEP) patients
Detailed Description:
This study is a randomized controlled trial. Patients presenting to the UMass Memorial UROGYN clinic will be screened for eligibility using the inclusion and exclusion criteria. LEP patients will be identified as patients that initiate conversation in a non-English language and are only able to communicate adequately regarding their medical problem in a non-English language.
After patients have been seen for their scheduled office visit, they will be invited to participate in the study. Once the patient has agreed to participate in the study the participant will be randomized. Study assignment will be revealed using sequentially numbered sealed opaque envelopes. Randomization will be performed using software and a block randomization scheme to yield a 50% chance of having an in-person interpreter.
Those assigned to the control group will receive phone translation services and the experimental group will have in person interpreters.
At the subsequent visit, demographic information will be collected and patients will then receive interpretation services from the phone or an in-person interpreter.
