Register today to attend the ISOQOL 1st Virtual Symposium, an event focused on challenges that healthcare providers (HCPs) encounter in the integration of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) into routine practice.

Scheduled for three half-days from 6-8 May 2025, this virtual event will consist of panel discussions, presentations, an interactive online activity, real world case studies, and live attendee engagement and interaction with the speakers.

Session Highlight

Session 2: Using the COM-B model and Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF) to Unpack Barriers and Facilitators of Healthcare Provider Adoption of PROMs

In session two, the focus is on the specific needs of HCPs to adopt PROMs into practice for both initial and sustained use. Specifically, provided will be a review of the TDF and COM-B model (Capability, Opportunity, Motivation and Behavior) to understand barriers and facilitators to change. This includes defining the factors that are influential when seeking to change HCP behavior. Participants will prioritize the factors that matter most to their context to increase provider adoption of PROMs. This interactive session is foundational to subsequent sessions.
