Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Likelihood of Any Colorectal Cancer (CRC) Screening (for Study-eligible Patients) | Primary outcome at 6 months following CCO eligible patient list pull date, | Adjusted 6-month any CRC screening for enrollees in clinic units. These values are predicted estimates rather than crude number \[%\] generated using marginal standardization and accounting for clustering and covariates (i.e., sex, age, and Medicaid health plan). Claims and vendor data were used to determine whether or not the patient completed CRC screening (i.e., fecal testing, FIT-DNA, sigmoidoscopy, CT colonography, or colonoscopy). To assess effectiveness of CRC screening completion, we used the generalized form of hierarchical linear model (binomial distribution with logit link) to account for clustering of patients within clinics and the assignment to arm at the clinic level. |
| Secondary | Completion of CRC Screening | Up to 12 months | Completed CRC screening at 12 months. Claims and vendor data were used to determine whether or not the patient completed CRC screening (i.e., fecal testing, FIT-DNA, sigmoidoscopy, CT colonography, or colonoscopy). |
| Secondary | Rate of CRC Screening Among the Intervention-eligible Population | 6 months | In the intervention clinics only, the list of patients eligible for screening was scrubbed by clinics. This percent is the N completed CRC screening out of the N included in intervention outreach after clinics scrubbed the list of eligible patients. |
| Secondary | Time to Screening From Study-eligible Patient List Pull | Up to 12 months | Days from study-eligible patient list pull to abnormal FIT result. Number of days at individual level. |
| Secondary | Abnormal FIT Results | 6 months | Number of participants with abnormal FIT Results |
| Secondary | Patient Navigation Trainings (Intervention Group) | Up to 12 months | Clinic participation (i.e., attendance) in patient navigation training, Year 1 clinical trial |
| Secondary | Patient Navigation Completed (Intervention Group) | Up to 12 months | Patient navigation implemented = one or more live phone contact with the patient (binary at the individual level). |
| Secondary | Follow-up Colonoscopy Completion | Up to 12 months | The percentage of patients with abnormal FIT who completed follow-up colonoscopy within 12 months |
| Secondary | Time to Colonoscopy From Abnormal FIT Result | Up to 12 months | Days from abnormal FIT result to completion of follow-up colonoscopy. Number of days at the individual level. |
| Secondary | Adenomas or Cancers Detected | Up to 12 months | Whether or not eligible patient had an adenoma or cancer detected. Binary at individual level. |
