Testing health information technology tools to facilitate health insurance support: a protocol for an effectiveness-implementation hybrid randomized trial.
Trial report in Implementation science : IS, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02355262 (Community-Based HIT Tools for Cancer Screening and Health Insurance Promotion), which is not on this map. Cited by 8 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Abstract
backgroundPatients with gaps in health insurance coverage often defer or forgo cancer prevention services. These delays in cancer detection and diagnoses lead to higher rates of morbidity and mortality and increased costs. Recent advances in health information technology (HIT) create new opportunities to enhance insurance support services that reduce coverage gaps through automated processes applied in healthcare settings. This study will assess the implementation of insurance support HIT tools and their effectiveness at improving patients' insurance coverage continuity and cancer screening rates. METHODS/
designThis study uses a hybrid cluster-randomized design-a combined effectiveness and implementation trial-in community health centers (CHCs) in the USA. Eligible CHC clinic sites will be randomly assigned to one of two groups in the trial's implementation component: tools + basic training (Arm I) and tools + enhanced training + facilitation (Arm II). A propensity score-matched control group of clinics will be selected to assess the tools' effectiveness. Quantitative analyses of the tools' impact will use electronic health record and Medicaid data to assess effectiveness. Qualitative data will be collected to evaluate the implementation process, understand how the HIT tools are being used, and identify facilitators and barriers to their implementation and use. DISCUSSION: This study will test the effectiveness of HIT tools to enhance insurance support in CHCs and will compare strategies for facilitating their implementation in "real-world" practice settings. Findings will inform further development and, if indicated, more widespread implementation of insurance support HIT tools.
