Helping patients complete colorectal cancer screening
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial is testing a simple program to help people who are due for colorectal cancer screening to complete their test. It's for patients at Cornell Scott Hill Health who either haven't finished a screening order or had an abnormal stool test without follow-up.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a current adult patient at Cornell Scott Hill Health (have a primary care doctor there or have visited at least once in the past year).
- You have a colonoscopy or stool test (FIT or FIT-DNA) that was ordered 3 months to 1 year ago, but you haven't completed it yet.
- Alternatively, you had an abnormal stool test result (positive FIT or FIT-DNA) and did not get a follow-up colonoscopy within 3 months of that result.
