Improving Cancer Screening and Follow-up in Community Health Centers

The intervention is implementation of new population health management tools that may better leverage patient navigation and other staff resources to ensure timely abnormal follow up of breast and colorectal cancer screening. The research team will work with CHCs to select implementation strategies that will best facilitate integration of the new tools into practice. The team will use electronic health record data (analyzed at the population level) to determine the impact of the new tools on screening outcomes and qualitative data from up to 3 staff and 2 patients per CHC to evaluate integration of the tools into practice.
