Testing the Impact of Measurement-Based Care on Quality of Life and Disease Management Among Veterans With Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Measurement Based Care for Inflammatory Bowel Disease - Intervention group. Veteran participants who are randomized to 12-months of MBC-IBD will be enrolled for 12 months. They will each complete surveys at baseline, 6-months, and 12-months post-randomization. After baseline completion, participants will be asked to complete weekly surveys. These assessments require completion of self-report questionnaires (PROs) which will be completed by phone or electronically using VA REDCap. MBC in IBD will not replace but rather provide care continuity between clinic visits. Patients allocated to MBC in IBD will receive automated reminders to complete weekly questionnaires. Further, patients will receive quarterly reports of their PRO data trends.

E-TAU will receive standard of care, including monitoring and treatment as directed at the discretion of their gastroenterologist. Participants will also receive educational videos and fact sheets on various IBD-specific topics.
