NCT ID NCT06682650

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a method called NPT-PLA to help 20 primary care clinics better use a decision-making tool that encourages colorectal cancer screening. About 2,200 patients and staff will take part. The goal is to see if this approach leads to more screening orders and completions compared to usual quality improvement efforts.
