Primary outcomePrimary: Colorectal Cancer Screening — 127; 112 participants — p=0.01
Summary
We will evaluate if we can increase colorectal cancer screening rates by directly sending screening tests to patients rather than waiting for them to come to clinic visits. We are also evaluating a new test--fecal immunochemical tests--which does not require patients to make dietary or medication changes. We will see if patients are more likely to complete these tests than the standard fecal occult blood tests.
