Introduction
Thank you for taking the time to participate in the next part of this special study. Our session today will take approximately a half hour. Today I’m going to have you navigate back to the same web survey that you completed last time and fill it out again while I observe.
As with last time, I’m interested in all of your feedback, so if anything is confusing, or if you are not sure how to answer a question or are unsure what to do next, just tell me. We’d like to audio and video record the session again, if that’s ok with you.
As a reminder, this is a research project and your participation is voluntary. You can skip any question and you can stop at any point. Everything that you say will be confidential – that is, no one outside the research team will know what you told us. We would very much appreciate your permission to audio and video record this conversation. The recording will be used for note-taking purposes only and may be listened to by the project or AHRQ staff. It will be destroyed when the project is over. Your name will not be linked to any of your responses, though we may include quotes that you provide in our reports. The recordings and our notes will be destroyed after we finish the project.
When we are finished with today’s interview, we will email you a 25 dollar electronic gift card as a token of appreciation for your time, and then will set up our next appointment for about 3 weeks from now for the final 90-minute interview.
IF PARTICIPANT JOINS BY AUDIO ONLY, ASK THEM TO TURN ON THE CAMERA ON THEIR DEVICE: I would like to be able to see you during the interview to help facilitate the interview today. Would you be willing to turn on your camera?
{IF OBSERVERS: We do have observers today from Westat who are taking notes and may jump in at the end to ask questions about your experience. For now, they are on mute and their cameras are off. Is that OK with you? [IF THE RESPONDENT SAYS NO, DISMISS THE OBSERVERS]}

Debriefing questions
Now that you’ve worked through the questionnaire a second time, please tell me your overall thoughts about your experience taking this survey.
How did your experience compare to the first time you filled it out?
Was anything easier or harder to do this time compared to your first time?
IF RESPONDENT DID NOT ENTER ANY EVENTS THIS TIME:
To help us get some additional feedback on the survey, I’d like to ask you to enter some fictional healthcare events and then to tell me what you thought of the experience.
Please navigate back to question 1.
Now I’d like you to pretend that you went to your primary care doctor on [LAST MONTH] 1, 2022, and to your dentist on [LAST MONTH] 15, 2022. Please go ahead and fill this out as if you had those two events to report, and once you’ve entered them, please review the entries to make sure everything is accurate.

“It seemed like you were unsure about xxx. Can you say more about that?”
Besides what is discussed, do you have any other suggestions for improving the usability of this survey?
Are there any other features that could be added to help you fill this out?
Those are all the questions I have for you. IF OBSERVERS PRESENT: We have observers in the session today. I’d like to invite them to send me a chat in Zoom if they have any follow-up questions they’d like me to ask.
