NHF Guideline Study

OUTCOMES, EQUITY, ACCEPTABILITY, FEASIBILITY:

Identifying and understanding stakeholder perceptions and experiences of models of care for hemophilia management in the US

About the Study


We are doing a study to explore and understand the perspectives of people providing or receiving hemophilia care in the US in one or more of the following ways:

  • Through a Specialty Pharmacy

  • Through a Hemophilia Treatment Centre or a large comprehensive care

  • Through a physician (who may or may not have expertise in hemophilia), who provides care in a non-specialized setting
We are most interested in understanding the health outcomes that matter to you and your experience providing or receiving hemophilia care.

How the Study Works


We are interested in conducting short telephone interviews (20-30 minutes) with:

  •      People with hemophilia (PWH) (age 19 or older)

  •      Parents of children with hemophilia (aged 18 years or younger)

  •      Physicians, nurses, social workers, physical therapists that provide hemophilia care

  •      Other stakeholders involved in hemophilia care (including policy makers and payers)
Interviews will be confidential; names of individuals, companies, locations, and any other identifying information will not be included in any of our reports or publications.
