摘要

随着心血管疾病（CVD）成为中低收入国家（LMICs）的主要死因，这给医疗系统带来了新的挑战。定期筛查是控制心血管疾病风险的关键措施，但此类服务的接受率仍然很低。我们在印度尼西亚开展了一项随机对照试验，以评估个性化和有针对性的短信是否能提高高危人群对糖尿病和高血压公共筛查服务的使用率。我们的干预措施使筛查率提高了 6.6 个百分点。我们的研究表明，在低收入和中等收入国家，疾病负担相对较轻，人群的反应可能仍受低显著性和筛查常规缺失的影响，在这种情况下，短信可能是有效的。

The effect of SMS reminders on health screening uptake: A randomized experiment in Indonesia

As cardiovascular diseases (CVD) become the leading cause of death in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), this raises new challenges for health systems. Regular screening is a key measure to manage CVD risk, but the uptake of such services remains low. We conducted a randomized controlled trial in Indonesia to assess whether personalized and targeted text messages increase the usage of public screening services for diabetes and hypertension in the at-risk population. Our intervention increased screening uptake by 6.6 percentage points. We show that text messages can be effective in the context of a relatively new disease burden in LMICs, where population responses may still be shaped by low salience and missing screening routines.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization is devoted to theoretical and empirical research concerning economic decision, organization and behavior and to economic change in all its aspects. Its specific purposes are to foster an improved understanding of how human cognitive, computational and informational characteristics influence the working of economic organizations and market economies and how an economy structural features lead to various types of micro and macro behavior, to changing patterns of development and to institutional evolution. Research with these purposes that explore the interrelations of economics with other disciplines such as biology, psychology, law, anthropology, sociology and mathematics is particularly welcome.
