JOB SUMMARY

The Research Interviewer will work on the new PCORI funded project, “Comparing Registry Surveillance and Provider Alerts with and without Patient Outreach, Navigation, and Care Coordination” a multi-center research project designed to study how health
systems can help more patients overcome roadblocks to achieve early kidney transplants. This study follows over 1,100 patients with chronic kidney disease receiving care in three health systems (Duke Health, Geisinger Health, University of Mississippi Medical Center) and will study the long-term effect of a new intervention called Patient Centered Early Health System Transplant Outreach. This intervention was designed to (1) identify patients qualifying for kidney transplants as early as possible, (2) support patients and their families with education and behavioral support to help them talk about overcome roadblocks to early transplants, (3) proactively reach out to patients to let them know they are eligible for early transplants and invite them to the transplant center, and (4) navigate patients through the multi-step transplant preparation process. All patients enrolled in the study have completed the intervention and are being followed for an additional 5 years.

Research Interviewers will contact patients by telephone for consent to extend their enrollment and to complete telephone surveys every 6 months from April 2026-December 2029. Research Interviewers will use an on-line program (REDCap) to enter participants responses to the survey questions. He/she will contact study participants using a study assigned mobile phone.
