Recruiting Primary Care Physicians for Bioterrorism and Public Health Surveillance

John Owen

A web-based demographic survey's compliance and the amount of effort and resources required to recruit clinicians for a short-term infectious disease sentinel surveillance project were compared in this study between three physician groups. Prior to a surveillance project, we recruited Wisconsin clinicians to participate in a demographic survey via email, phone, or fax from a primary care practice-based research network (PBRN), an influenza sentinel clinician program, and a state academy of family physicians. Through the use of Zoomerang, questionnaires were developed and distributed to participants.
