      ab: * Context.--Standardized structured reporting (SSR) among pathologists results in more complete diagnoses and, subsequently, improved treatment decisions and patient outcomes. Therefore, SSR templates' usage is advocated in oncology guidelines. However, actual SSR usage varies widely. Previous studies have shown multiple impeding and facilitating factors regarding SSR implementation. Objective.--To select, develop, and test an evidence-based multifaceted strategy, tailored to the impeding and facilitating factors to improve SSR implementation in oncologic pathology. Design.--Six strategy elements to increase the use of SSR were selected on the basis of a barrier and facilitator analysis, literature review, and consecutive discussions with a nationwide expert panel and project team. In collaboration with a professional organization for developing SSR templates (PALGA), we developed elements and combined them in 1 multifaceted strategy and subsequently tested effectiveness and feasibility. Results.--The 6 strategy elements were as follows: (1) renewed Web site including SSR information; (2) e-learning including SSR instructions; (3) communication manual describing communication about SSR; (4) improved feedback process, including use of the "Feedback Button" within SSR templates and "Frequently Asked Questions" on the Web site; (5) information sheet on SSR updates within SSR templates; and (6) monthly telephone conversations to discuss audit and feedback information regarding local SSR usage. A significant change (12.4%) in SSR usage among test laboratories was noticed. After the first test, e-learning and the "Feedback Button" were deemed most feasible and effective. However, awareness of all elements could be increased. Conclusions.--Next steps will be to optimize the tailored strategy, to distribute it to all Dutch pathology laboratories, and to evaluate effectiveness and feasibility in a nationwide setting.
