Hi there. I now begin to understand that evaluating the changes in behaviors of patients with chronic conditions is very important. Could you please elaborate more for me?

Hi, friend! I was told that medication adherence is not only a component of patients’ self-management of their chronic conditions but also an important metric to be assessed in the evaluation of these programs. Could you please kindly elaborate more for me?

Hey, I was told that once criteria are established, the performance standards for these criteria need to be developed. Could you please give me a clue about it? How to construct one?

Hey, I understand that program evaluation requires the establishment of criteria and performance standards. Regarding our program aiming at decreasing the incidence of HIV infection among men who have sex with men, I still find it very difficult to construct the criteria. Could you please kindly help me with it?

Following the previous post, it sounds like logic models are not static entities. And a robust logic model is so plausible, sensible, and clearly communicates the causal processes that lead to the identified outcomes. And. Could you give me some related references for using the logic model? It would be better if they are in the hospital setting!

Hello. I understand that the Logic model is a fundamental tool for program evaluation and will help to set the boundaries of the project, strategy, initiative, or policy to be evaluated. Could you give me an example to gain a deeper understanding of it? For example, the overarching health issue of concern in our program is the decreased incidence of HIV infection among men who have sex with men through educating our target audiences.

Hi there. I heard that mobile health (mHealth) interventions have great potential to provide much-needed access to care. I wonder if there is any related program evaluation regarding it?

Hi there. So, based on the pre-COVID-19 crisis literature, we conclude that the research evidence about telehealth would be more useful for practice and policy decisions if the data and studies were better. Right? I wonder if you may get some advice for future related program evaluation of telehealth?

Hey, I have read more about telehealth. It is said that in those pre-COVID-19 telehealth evaluations, benefits were seen in situations where patients and clinicians had a choice, such as outpatient telehealth provider consultations were predominantly used to replace sending a patient for in-person visits with a specialist. However, the current environment and expectations and goals of both patients and providers are very different, making it likely outcomes will be different. Therefore, I wonder if these evaluations still are valuable?
