Brief Summary:
The goal of this study is to optimize Barrett's Esophagus (BE) screening to reduce the incidence, morbidity, and mortality of Esophageal Adenocarcinoma (EAC).
Detailed Description:
The initial step to achieve this goal is to study shortcomings of the current BE screening referral processes in the United States. These shortcomings will be identified through completion of two synergistic aims that assess:, (1) provider knowledge, attitudes, and barriers to BE screening referral and (2) patient knowledge, attitudes, and barriers to completion of BE screening. The central hypothesis is that there are patient- and provider-level factors that can be modified to improve BE screening adherence. This hypothesis was formulated based on strong preliminary data demonstrating significant single-mindedness among gastroenterologists regarding BE screening criteria.
