Electronic Health Record (EHR)-Based Intervention for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) and Chronic Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drug (NSAID) Use

The purpose of the study is to examine the impact of augmented, high-quality physician-coordinated care executed via an electronic health record (EHR)-based intervention on quality of care for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and for gastroprotection for patients on chronic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) at increased risk for upper GI tract ulcers and ulcer related complications.
