Evaluating mPATH-Cloud, a digital decision aid and navigation tool to support CRC screening

We are implementing a digital health intervention, mPATH-Cloud, in one community health center. Patients who receive a link to the mPATH-Cloud website will be able to view a video designed to help them choose the colorectal cancer (CRC) screening test that is best for them. Patients who select colonoscopy will receive a referral from their primary care provider. Patients who do not select colonoscopy will receive a FIT in the mail. We will assess the feasibility and effectiveness of implementing mPATH-Cloud in combination with mailed FIT outreach for increasing CRC screening among community health center patients.
