详细描述
Purpose: The investigators propose to test the effectiveness, feasibility, and cost-effectiveness of a mailed reminder with and without FIT kits in a population of Medicaid enrollees in Mecklenburg County.
Participants: Medicaid beneficiaries who are enrolled in Community Care of North Carolina, ages 52-64, currently living in Mecklenburg County, at average risk for colorectal cancer (CRC), with no record of recent CRC screening (FOBT within 12 months, colonoscopy within 10 years).
Procedures (methods): Participants will be identified through the state Medicaid database and randomized to receive either: 1) a mailed reminder to complete CRC screening including a FIT kit, instructions for completion, and a return mailer, OR 2) a mailed reminder to complete CRC screening only.
Any recipients testing positive will be guided by care managers from Community Care of North Carolina to ensure a follow-up colonoscopy is completed.
