Health Service Intervention for the Improvement of Access and Adherence to Colorectal Cancer Screening

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Colorectal Carcinoma

In brief

This phase I study investigates how well a health service program called Witness CARES Services works in increasing access and adherence to colorectal cancer screening in patients who have not undergone a colorectal screening in the past year. Providing patients with navigational and screening services via Witness CARES Services may improve access to and adherence levels of colorectal screening.
