Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to determine feasibility and explore whether financial incentives paid to primary care patients for completing colorectal cancer screening increase completion of colorectal cancer screening. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Do patient financial incentives for completing colorectal cancer screening increase screening completion?
* Does a patient financial incentive for colorectal cancer screening offered alongside patient financial incentives for COVID-19 and flu shots increase completion of those shots?

Participants who are due for colorectal cancer screening will receive telephone outreach from primary care staff who will offer a stool-based colorectal cancer screening. Participants will be randomly assigned to either Group 1 or Group 2. Group 1 participants will be offered financial incentives for completing COVID-19 and flu shots within 2 months of enrollment. Group 2 participants will be offered financial incentives for completing a COVID-19 shot, a flu shot, and colorectal cancer screening within 2 months of enrollment.

Researchers will compare to see if completion of a COVID-19 shot, a flu shot, and colorectal cancer screening is different between the two groups.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Participants will be randomly assigned to a study arm for the duration of their two months in the study
Primary Study Purpose

SCREENING

Blinding Strategy

DOUBLE

Caregivers Outcome Assessors
Primary care outreach staff will recruit and randomize participants and deliver the intervention. Group assignment will be documented in a separate study database not accessible by the primary care provider. Outcomes will be assessed in electronic health records data, which will be queried by primary care staff who do not have access to group assignment.
