Evidence-based intervention | Actionable area | Proposed strategy |
---|---|---|
1. EHR provider reminder | • Perceived burden and provider fatigue with EHR provider reminders • EHR provider reminders are not up to date and becomes unreliable and ineffectual | • Use teamwork approach and share the burden  ○ Conduct morning huddles  ○ Implement standing order for CRC screening  ○ Use medical assistant to check, confirm and update CRC screening status during patient intake |
2. Provider assessment & feedback (provider- & clinic-level) | • Absence of CRC screening goals at the organizational and clinic levels • Poor communication on goals and performance | • Assist leadership to set realistic goals for CRC screening rate at the organizational level and individual clinic • Include the target CRC screening rates in the quarterly assessment and feedback report • Disseminate the quarterly clinic level assessment and feedback report to all members of the clinic • Provide technical support and financial assistant to create a quality data dashboard within EHR to provide timely feedback |
3. CRC stewards (integrated care specialists) | • Challenges to providing health care services to diverse patient populations • Lack of awareness about CRC screening among patients • Absence of print materials for frontline implementers to educate patients | • Identify and collect culturally and linguistically specific CRC education material • Develop CRC related information beyond types of screening methods • Develop a resource guide for frontline implementers |
