4 Health Within Reach Aims Develop interactive patient education video (Video Doctor) and Provider Alert to increase screening of hepatitis B and C in Asian American patients Evaluate the efficacy of the Video Doctor + Provider Alert intervention + Provider Panel Notification vs. Provider Panel Notification in 2 healthcare systems through provider randomized controlled trial

15 Challenges of Collaboration Different perspectives and approaches Aligning expectations Communication Personnel and other changes

16 Addressing Challenges Budget Logistics: regular team meeting with rotating sites, coordinators meetings, PI phone calls Respectful communication time for discussion so everyone’s viewpoints are heard problem solving not finger pointing consensus decision making Stakeholder engagement: regular meetings on site with food, being open-minded, sense of humor

17 Recommendations Establish relationships early before thinking about writing a grant together Be flexible and modify your approach as needed Establish open communication Understand that resolving challenges caused by intersection of different perspectives lead to innovation and generalizability

18 Discussion How to find stakeholders or collaborators? How to be flexible? How to deal with conflict?
