Summary

The goal of this PREDICT is to assess a personalize approach to screening and management of cervical cancer testing. The investigators will evaluate patients who are due for a follow up cervical cancer screening in the primary care clinics in the Massachusetts General Brigham system. Patients will be randomized by clinic into three different arms (Arm 1: standard care, Arm 2: visit based reminders, Arm 3: visit based reminders and population health outreach)

Conditions

  • Cervical Cancer Screening

Interventions

OTHER

Visit-based IT reminders to patients and practitioners

To identify patients due for CCSM, simplify test ordering/referral, and track follow-up, PREDICT will include: 1) automated updating of a patient's problem list with the current cervical screening finding, 2) automated updating of cervical cancer health maintenance topics to the appropriate time interval and follow-up test/ procedure through the use of modifiers, 3) "SmartSets" to standardize ordering of procedures/ specialty referrals.

OTHER

Population outreach

Patients will be sent a reminder letter 90 days prior to the due date via the patient portal or mailed if no portal account (Outreach 1). If needed, four weeks later a phone call from the outreach coordinator reminds patients of the follow-up date if scheduled or helps establish follow-up (Outreach 2). The coordinator could also place an order for a referral and send a reminder to the practitioner to sign it if appropriate. The coordinator will review and document any "alternative care plans" discussed by the PCP and patient.
