NCT03925883

Brief Summary

The prospective cohort study will evaluate the effectiveness of patient navigation in community health center settings. The investigators will collaborate with the advisory board, composed of key clinicians and patients, researchers, and policymakers, to establish a procedure to conduct and evaluate a patient navigation program that aims to increase rates of follow-up colonoscopy among diverse patient populations served by safety net clinics. Phase 1 will be a milestone-driven planning process in which the investigators will validate the risk prediction model and apply the risk prediction model to stratify the patients and adapt patient navigation materials for the local context. Phase II will be a large-scale, patient randomized-controlled trial that will include 1200 patients at a large 34-clinic community health center in Washington State.

Study Arms (2)

Patient Navigation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients randomized to this arm will receive patient navigation with the goal of completing a follow-up colonoscopy within 12 months of a positive FIT result.

Behavioral: Patient navigation

Usual Care

NO INTERVENTION

Patients will receive usual care screening opportunities

Interventions

Receive up to 6 live phone calls with a patient navigator for education, barrier assessment, and barrier resolution to follow up colonoscopy
