Brief Summary

The study is a pilot analysis using a decision on the risk and benefits of oral anticoagulation for stroke reduction for patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. This study is a feasibility and acceptability analysis but will also measure preliminary effectiveness measures.

The investigator hypothesizes that a patient decision support tool will increase decision quality and secondarily increase the use of oral anticoagulation in Black patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation.
