About this study

In plain language

This pilot study looks at ways to remove barriers to screening for colorectal cancer, which is cancer of the colon or rectum. It is for adult staff at partner community health centers who help with screening. Researchers will hold staff group discussions and review data from electronic health records and a system used to track patient care.

The investigators will use a mixed methods study i.e. focus groups involving CHC staff as well as quantitative study which involves analyzing data that is available from the EHR and DRVS population management platform.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
