About this trial

This proposal evaluates the implementation of a novel, non-interruptive, electronic health record alert for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) fibrosis risk assessment in primary care patients with MASLD using a stepped wedge, cluster randomized design. This work will generate generalizable data to dramatically enhance MASLD management in primary care.
