COLORECTAL POLYPS
The mPATH™ program database includes patients’ medical record numbers, age, sex, date/time of use, length of time in program, whether mPATH™-CheckIn and mPATH™-CRC modules are completed, and responses to questions. Questions asked within mPATH™ include screening questions (related to falls, safety, and depression), risk factor questions (personal history of CRC or colorectal polyps, family history of CRC, or visible blood in stool), and questions related to “self-order” of CRC screening tests. If patients are deemed as due for CRC screening, they are also asked to confirm if they have had a recent screening that may not have been recorded in the EHR. The front desk staff member who checks the patient in, the nursing staff member who rooms the patient, and the provider are also captured.
