Study Summary

Screening for colorectal cancer (CRC) not only detects disease early when treatment is more effective but also prevents cancer by finding and removing precancerous polyps. Because many of our nation's most disadvantaged and vulnerable individuals obtain health care at federally qualified health centers, these centers play a significant role in increasing CRC screenings among the most vulnerable populations. Furthermore, the full benefits of cancer screenings must include timely and appropriate follow-up of abnormal results. Thus, the purpose of this study is to implement a multilevel intervention to increase rates of CRC screenings, follow-ups, and referrals-to-care in federally qualified health centers (FQHCs). Also, we will examine the implementation strategies used to support the implementation process and their contribution to the adoption, implementation, and sustainment of the multilevel intervention. The multilevel intervention will target three different levels of influences: organization, provider, and individual. It will have multiple components, including provider and staff education, provider reminder, provider assessment and feedback, patient reminder, and patient navigation. This study is a multilevel, three-phase, stepped wedge cluster randomized trial with four clusters of clinics from four different FQHCs. Our FQHC partners together have 40 primary care clinics and 130 primary care providers. During Phase 1, there will be a 3-month waiting period during which no intervention components will be implemented. After the 3-month waiting period, we will randomize two clusters of clinics to cross from the control to the intervention and the remaining two clusters to follow three months later. All clusters of clinics will stay at the same phase for nine months, followed by a 3-month transition period, and then cross over to the next phase. In Phase 1, we will implement provider and staff education sessions. In Phase 2, we will add provider reminders, patie
