Internet-Based Motivational Interviewing for Colonoscopy

Participants in the e-Motivate group will receive standard clinical care which includes patient navigation (e.g., scheduling and reminders). They will also complete a 20-minute, motivational interviewing informed tablet app in the clinic immediately after they receive a referral for a screening colonoscopy. The tablet app consists of educational videos, interactive exercises (e.g., decisional balance), and personalized feedback (e.g., print summary).

Participants in the usual care group will receive standard clinical care for patients referred for a screening colonoscopy. In particular, they will receive patient navigation which includes scheduling the colonoscopy appointment, making reminder calls, and providing print materials regarding the bowel prep instructions.
