 This research study was conducted on 8 dates of an annual flu shot clinic at the San Francisco General Hospital. Patients were offered flu shots as usual (control group) and on 9 other dates, patients were offered both flu shots and FOBT kits (intervention group). Researchers wanted to determine whether providing home fecal occult blood test (FOBT) kits to eligible patients during influenza inoculation (flu shot) clinics can contribute to higher colorectal cancer screening (CRCS) rates. The study concluded that offering FOBT kits during flu shot clinics dramatically increased the CRCS rate for flu shot clinic attendees. Pairing home FOBT kits with annual flu shots may be a useful strategy to improve CRCS rates in other primary care or public health settings.

“As of January 1, 2012, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) requires that a health risk assessment (HRA) be completed as part of the Medicare annual wellness visit. Efforts by the AAFP and others to persuade CMS to delay the HRA were unsuccessful, and the requirement became effective without a compliant form for physicians to use.”“To fill this void, the AAFP's practice improvement journal Family Practice Management (FPM) published a questionnaire developed by HowsYourHealth.org. The questionnaire meets the requirements for the HRA and can help you identify health behaviors and risk factors in patients.”
