Colorectal Cancer Screening Navigator Program for Low Income and Non-English Speaking Populations

ABSTRACT: The goal of this study is to implement and in a controlled randomised trial test a program to identify and overcome barriers to CRC screening and thus improve CRC screening rates at MGH Chelsea HC. Our hypothesis is that a bilingual navigator program, enhanced by using trained interpreting staff will improve CRC screening rates at MGH Chelsea HC overall, and decrease disparities between patients with limited English proficiency and English speakers

Project description:The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of a two-phase intervention using "community-to-clinic navigators" to guide individuals from an especially hard-to-reach, multicultural, and underinsured population into primary care clinics and, subsequently, to track effects of the intervention on completion of colorectal cancer (CRC) screening in clinics. A cost-effectiveness analysis will lay the foundation for further implementation and dissemination research. Aim 1: Test effectiveness of community group education + tailored navigation versus community group education only in increasing clinic attendance among low-income, multicultural Arizona residents, aged 50 to 75 yrs. Hypothesis 1: Individuals receiving group education classes + tailored navigation will show higher rates of clinic attendance than those receiving only group education. * As a separate critical step for those who make clinic appointments, the investigators will examine the effect on follow through to screening, using initial group assignment as a control variable in analysis. Patients making clinic appointments will receive referral for screening and tailored navigation as usual care. Aim 2: Track outcomes of the Phase I intervention on CRC screening test completion among low-income, multicultural Arizona residents aged 50 to 75 years who attend clinic. Hypothesis 2: Individuals receiving group classes and tailored navigation during Phase I will have higher rates of CRC screening test completion than those receiving classes only, (however this outcome will be primarily due to clinic attendance). Aim 3: Determine the cost-effectiveness of each phase of the interventions on increasing CRC screening completion among low-income, multicultural Arizona residents aged 50 to 75 years. Exploratory Aim 4: Examine the levels of program dissemination from community to clinic to final screenings using the RE-AIM model. Research Question 2: What is the degree of Reach, Efficacy, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance of the community-to-clinic navigation, and clinic-to-screening outcomes?
