Medical School/Institution: A.T. Still University School of Osteopathic Medicine, California University of Science and Medicine
Project Location/Site: St. John’s Community Health, Los Angeles, CA
Year: 2022
Key Outcomes:
Eligible patients that were called and either reached or left a message had better compliance rate outcomes. Clinical/provider intervention for breast cancer screening during a clinic visit also lead to better compliance rate outcomes. Some of St. John’s Clinic sites have more patient screening compliance than others. The top being Williams, Compton, and Magnolia sites. Mammogram screening rates are increasing since the decline in 2020 due to St. John’s outreach efforts.
