This is a randomized study evaluating the effect of routinely collecting a standardized questionnaire of heart failure health status during heart failure clinic visits. Participants will be randomized to early or delayed implementation of a validated health-related quality of life survey (the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire). Participants randomized to early implementation will be given this 12-question survey at each heart failure clinic visit at the beginning of the study; their heart failure clinician will have access to survey results but will continue to manage participants based on standard treatment practice. Patients randomized to delayed implementation will start receiving the survey at each clinic visit one year later. By comparing the health status and treatment rates between early and delayed implementation, this study will determine the impact of standardized health status assessment on patient outcomes and clinician decision-making.

| Routine Collection of Patient-Reported Health Status (KCCQ-12 Arm) | Experimental | Patients in the KCCQ-12 arm will undergo KCCQ-12 assessment of patient-reported heart failure health status in the electronic health record at each heart failure clinic visit beginning at the start of the trial. Assessment results will be available to clinicians in the electronic health record when making treatment decisions during each clinic visit. |
|
| Usual Care | Active Comparator | Patients in the usual care arm will not complete KCCQ-12 assessments in the electronic health record with clinic visits. They will complete a KCCQ-12 assessment at baseline that will not be available to the treating clinician. |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-12 | Other | Health status assessment will be completed using the well-validated Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-12 prior to or at the time of heart failure clinic visits. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-12 Score | The first KCCQ-12 score collected one year after randomization will be compared between the KCCQ-12 and usual care arms. KCCQ-12 scores will be collected in the usual care arm starting one year after randomization. Scores will be adjusted for baseline KCCQ-12 in both arms. This will be the primary effectiveness outcome. KCCQ-12 has 4 domains (Physical Limitation Score, Symptom Frequency Score, Quality of Life Score, Social Limitation Score) and one Summary Score. Domain scores are scaled 0-100, and the overall score is the average of the domain scores. For the domain and overall scores, 0 denotes the lowest reportable health status and 100 the highest. Higher values represent a better outcome. | Collected at the first heart failure clinic visit at least one year post-randomization or via telephone interview 15 months post-randomization |
| Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-12 Response Rate | Frequency of KCCQ-12 response at each clinic visit among patients in the KCCQ-12 arm. This will be the primary implementation outcome. The rate will be calculated as the number of responses divided by the total number of requests to complete the survey. | 1 year |

| Secondary | Count of Telephone Encounters Per Patient | Stanford heart failure telephone encounters during the follow-up period. | Not Posted | Evaluated through trial completion (first heart failure clinic visit at least one year post-randomization or via telephone interview 15 months post-randomization) | Participants |
| Secondary | Percentage of Patients Who Undergo Formal Advanced Heart Failure Therapy Evaluation | Formal work-up for heart transplant or LVAD (left ventricular assist device) eligibility | Not Posted | Within one year post-randomization | Participants |
| Secondary | Quality of Patient Clinic Experience | The results from a 10-question survey with ordinal responses regarding patient experience in clinic to a sub-study of all participants enrolled after the first month. | Not Posted | First clinic visit post-randomization within approximately 14 days | Participants |
| Secondary | Correlation Between Clinician and Patient Perception of Health Status | Patient and clinician perception of health status will be collected. Patient perception is collected via the KCCQ-12 while clinicians will be surveyed regarding health status. We will determine the correlation between patient and clinician perception using an ordinal scale. We will compare correlation across arms. | Not Posted | First clinic visit post-randomization within approximately 14 days | Participants |
| Secondary | Cardiovascular Diagnostic Test Frequency | Number of diagnostic tests performed between randomization and one year post-randomization. Diagnostic tests include cardiovascular imaging (echocardiography, MRI, cardiac CT, nuclear scan), invasive testing (coronary angiography, right heart catheterization), or ambulatory rhythm monitoring. | Not Posted | Within one year post-randomization | Participants |
| Secondary | Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-12 Score Among Patients With Heart Failure or Cardiomyopathy | The first KCCQ-12 score collected one year after randomization will be compared between the KCCQ-12 and usual care arms among patients with heart failure or cardiomyopathy The first KCCQ-12 score collected one year after randomization will be compared between the KCCQ-12 and usual care arms. KCCQ-12 scores will be collected in the usual care arm starting one year after randomization. Scores will be adjusted for baseline KCCQ-12 in both arms. This will be the primary effectiveness outcome. KCCQ-12 has 4 domains (Physical Limitation Score, Symptom Frequency Score, Quality of Life Score, Social Limitation Score) and one Summary Score. Scores are scaled 0-100, where 0 denotes the lowest reportable health status and 100 the highest. | Not Posted | Collected at the first heart failure clinic visit at least one year post-randomization or via telephone interview/web questionnaire 15 months post-randomization | Participants |
| Secondary | Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-12 Score Among Patients With Sub-optimal Health Status at Baseline | The first KCCQ-12 score collected one year after randomization will be compared between the KCCQ-12 and usual care arms among patients with baseline KCCQ <100 at baseline | Not Posted | Collected at the first heart failure clinic visit at least one year post-randomization or via telephone interview/web questionnaire 15 months post-randomization | Participants |
| Secondary | Number of Total Heart Failure Medication Adjustments | The total number of heart failure medication adjustments. Heart failure medications include beta-blockers, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, sodium/glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors, hydralazine/nitrate therapy, ivabradine, or loop diuretics. | Not Posted | Number of medication adjustments from randomization to one year post randomization | Participants |

| EG001 | Usual Care | Patients in the usual care arm will not complete KCCQ-12 assessments in the electronic health record with clinic visits. They will complete a KCCQ-12 assessment at baseline that will not be available to the treating clinician. Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-12: Health status assessment will be completed using the well-validated Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-12 prior to or at the time of heart failure clinic visits. | 21 | 624 | 0 | 624 | 0 | 624 |
