Putting Shared Decision-Making into Practice in Hemophilia Care

Among the many barriers to implementation of newer therapies with patients with hemophilia, step therapy policies in hemophilia undermine the physician-patient relationship and shared decision-making (SDM) process. SDM is also underutilized in the management of hemophilia due to lack of knowledge, and it is imperative that hematologists have access to education that empowers them to adapt a model of SDM that includes patient education within the clinical workflow in order to optimize patient-centered care.

In this third module of the three-part CME Outfitters Snack series on prior authorization for hemophilia concludes with a focus on developing team-based approaches for integrating SDM and patient education into practice for patients with hemophilia.

We encourage learners to complete all 3 CME Snacks in this series to receive a Certificate of Excellence in Prior Authorization.

At the end of this CE activity, participants should be able to:
-Develop team-based approaches to integrate SDM and patient education to improve access to appropriate therapies.

The following learning objectives pertain only to those requesting CNE or CPE credit:
-Summarize team-based approaches to integrate SDM and patient education to improve access to appropriate therapies.
