Screeners for FDA IMPROVE Survey
ACP & AANP Eligibility Criteria

The eligibility screening process is conducted using preexisting member databases
maintained by AANP and ACP, respectively. Screening based on these databases before
the email recruitment stage reduces the burden on participants. While these databases are
updated with information provided by members, it is crucial to screen participants to
determine whether respondents have the prescribing experience necessary to be eligible
for participation.
AANP
1. Are you clinically practicing in an outpatient setting? Yes/No [Recruit if answer is “Yes”]
2. Approximately how many hours per week do you provide direct patient care as a nurse
practitioner? 0-10, 1-20, 21-30, 31-40, 41-50, 51-60, 61 or more [Recruit all]
ACP
1. Are you clinically practicing in primary care? Yes/No
[Recruit if answer is “Yes”]
2. How much time do you spend in an in an outpatient care setting? <25%, 25-49%, 50-74%,
75%+ [Recruit all]
ACP & AANP Demographic Characteristics
Incorporating the following demographic questions as intake questions will ensure equipoise
between ACP and AANP’s collected demographic data and allow for stronger data analysis.
These questions serve to describe survey participants, but will not be used to screen participants
or eliminate their eligibility to participate in the study. These questions will be optional and
placed at the end of the survey to avoid dropout or survey fatigue before the intended survey is
administered. The ACP and AANP survey questions may differ slightly to accommodate
professional differences between NPs and PCPs; these differences have been marked below.
