The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if electronic health record (EHR) nudges (changes to the EHR that do not restrict freedom of choice or alter incentives) can reduce Z-drug prescribing in primary care clinics for patients with insomnia. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can Z-drug prescribing be reduced by setting the dispense quantity default of new Z-drug orders in the EHR to 10 pills with 0 refills? 2. Can Z-drug prescribing be reduced by an EHR alert that suggests clinicians remove a Z-drug and/or add an evidence-based behavioral treatment for insomnia, followed by a request to justify their reasoning if the suggestion is not followed? 3. Does combining these two nudges reduce Z-drug prescribing? Researchers will compare each nudge individually and in combination to an guideline education control group to see if each nudge (separately and in combination) can reduce Z-drug prescribing. Clinician-participants will: 1. Complete an introductory educational module about treating insomnia and relevant EHR changes. 2. Complete their routine patient visits. 3. Either experience EHR changes when prescribing Z-drugs, including a Z-drug dispense quantity default of 10 pills for new orders, a prompt to remove or justify Z-drug orders, both, or neither.
