Healthcare providers needed for research study about developing a healthbot for varenicline (Champix) adherence Forum topic

We, at CAMH, are conducting a study where we are looking for healthcare providers to take part in a short demographic survey and a 60-minute interview to share their perspectives on the use of digital health solutions (i.e., “healthbots”) for improving varenicline adherence in patients who are trying to quit smoking. We hope to use this information to create an evidence-based healthbot to improve patient outcomes for medication adherence. For more information, please see attached study flyer.
