Interventions

  • Machine Learning Algorithm with Existing Penn Medicine CRC Patient Navigation Program — OTHER
    This intervention will utilize the existing Penn Medicine CRC patient navigation program. There will be a monthly list of patients with unfilled coloscopies provided, that are risk-stratified according to the machine learning algorithm and select high-risk criteria. The navigation team will prioritize timely outreach and navigation to high-risk patients according to a script that communicates risk.

Study Details

The overarching goal of the "PCSNaP" Research Study is to support the Abramson Cancer Center (ACC) of the University of Pennsylvania in carrying out its mission to increase colorectal cancer (CRC) screening completion among high-risk individuals living in a persistent poverty county by designing, conducting, disseminating and evaluating an electronic health record-based automated identification program to target effective, culturally-sensitive CRC screening navigation to individuals who have not completed an ordered colonoscopy or fecal immunochemical test (FIT).
