Improving Care with Data Exchange – Colorectal Cancer Screening
A practice-ready set of user-story artifacts and workflow touchpoints showing how practices can close colorectal cancer screening gaps by leveraging CalAIM and a QHIO—using practical triggers like preventive-care lists, secure outreach coordination, and routed lab/colonoscopy results. Health practices gain a concrete blueprint to reduce missed screenings among harder-to-reach patients by clarifying roles, handoffs, and where information should flow to support timely follow-up. These artifacts were co-designed through the Community Design Studio model with practices, MCPs, and community partners to ensure workflows reflect real operational constraints and improvement opportunities across stakeholders. In partnership with Connecting for Better Health and made possible with funding from Covered California
