Аннотация
OBJECTIVE: To develop a coordinated colorectal cancer (CRC) screening program within a large urban health system, with the ultimate goal of increasing system-wide screening rates of eligible patients and reducing no-show rates while increasing colonoscopy completion rates.
STUDY SETTING: A large urban academic health system comprising 8 hospitals and over 400 ambulatory practices.
STUDY DESIGN: The CHOICE Program combined patient navigation, electronic medical record (EMR) optimization, and system-wide practice changes to improve CRC screening completion by colonoscopy. The program incorporates provider and patient education, standardization of documentation and protocols, increased outreach by navigators, and streamlining of patient scheduling. The primary outcome is colonoscopy completion.
DATA COLLECTION: All health system patients between the ages of 45 and 75 and at average risk of CRC are the target population for the intervention. A review of screen-eligible patients' completion of colonoscopy was performed to assess program success.
PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: During a 2-year period (March 2022 to February 2024), 18,119 people were referred into the program, and 79% of scheduled patients completed the colonoscopy. The CHOICE program operationalized and standardized the CRC screening efforts of a large health system and offers a template that can be implemented or adapted by other hospital systems and provider networks.
