Low-Literacy Physician-Patient Intervention Promoting Colorectal Cancer Screening
Study Overview
Status
Conditions
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
This study will test the separate and combined effect of two of these interventions: 1) a provider communication skills training using a continuous quality improvement (CQI) framework, and 2) a brief, multimedia Patient Education Program (PEP) that incorporates plain language, graphic design, and audio voice-over to overcome literacy limitations. Our provider intervention has demonstrated efficacy to significantly improve CRC screening recommendation rates. Our multimedia program has also been field tested among patients with limited literacy and was able to improve patient knowledge and intention to receive screening.
We will implement both provider-only and combined provider-patient strategies within a federally qualified health center network to determine the most effective and efficient approach to promote CRC screening in these settings. Results from the study, supplemented by cost analyses and the process evaluation will directly inform translational strategies for cancer prevention within difficult community-based healthcare settings.
