FIT Outreach

This arm will consist of priming patients with a postcard and a possibly a phone call two weeks prior to them being mailed a FIT kit. The FIT kits will be mailed to the patients with a letter from their clinic's care team informing them why they should complete the FIT and wordless instructions to help them complete the FIT. Two weeks after the FIT kit is mailed the patients that have not returned the kit will receive up to two reminder calls. During the phone calls the outreach workers will use health coaching techniques to encourage patients to complete the FIT. All written materials have been translated into English and Chinese and during phone calls patients will be spoken to in the language that they are most comfortable using.
