Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Established adult medicine patient at Cornell Scott Hill health (defined as having a CSHH primary care doctor or \>1 adult medicine visits in the last year). * Incomplete colorectal cancer screening test defined as an outstanding order for colonoscopy or stool-based CRC screening (e.g., fecal immunochemical test (FIT) or FIT-DNA testing), but no evidence of test completion at the time of randomization. Orders must have been placed between 90-365 days prior to randomization. OR * Abnormal stool-based test without follow-up, defined as an abnormal stool-based test result (e.g., positive FIT or FIT-DNA) with no completed diagnostic colonoscopy within 90 days of the result. Patients who meet this criterion will be included in a non randomized arm of the study. Exclusion Criteria: * Because this is a pragmatic study of a behavioral intervention to improve colorectal cancer screening adherence, any participants who otherwise meet the inclusion criteria will not be excluded.
