Ethics approval and consent to participate

: We received approval from the Institutional Review Board (IRB) at the VA Boston Healthcare System (IRB #2563). Study participation was voluntary and we obtained informed consent from participants for each phase of the study. The VA Boston IRB approved a waiver of documented informed consent for participation in the telephone interviews, web-based surveys, and educational program. Thus, participants provided us with verbal consent for the telephone interviews, consent through an opt-in link embedded in an email for the web-based surveys, and consent through an opt-in link embedded in an email for the educational program.
