Summary

This study tested whether a program that uses computer algorithms to identify people who are overdue for colorectal cancer screening, combined with a patient navigator to help them schedule and complete the test, could increase screening rates. The study included 385 adults living in low-income zip codes in Philadelphia who had not yet completed a colonoscopy or stool test. The goal was to see if this approach is feasible and effective in a real-world setting.
