Summary

As a part of UCLA Health's continued goal of improving patient care the investigators are updating our mailing campaign for our FIT Kit colorectal cancer screening that the investigators administer 2 times per year to include an automated phone call reminder to patients who are overdue for average-risk colorectal cancer screening and enrolled in a mailed FIT program. This will help the investigators evaluate if automated phone calls are effective at improving compliance with CRC screening, in addition to mailed FIT and embedded electronic health record (EHR) portal messages to patients.

Conditions

  • Colorectal Cancer Screening

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Delayed automated phone call

Cipher provides automated phone calls to patients; in this case the script for Cipher was modified to provide patients a reminder to return FIT kits, allow patients to request a new kit in case they need a replacement, and to allow patients to provide information if they already completed CRC screening
