Improving cancer prevention through primary care partnerships
Partnering with primary care to address goals of equity, value and sustainment for primary cancer prevention
['FUNDING_R01'] · UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO DENVER · NIH-10976905
This study is testing a helpful online tool called My Own Health Report (MOHR) that aims to support people in rural areas by helping them understand their cancer risks, set health goals, and find resources to improve their well-being, especially for those who might face extra challenges.

What this research studies
This research focuses on enhancing cancer prevention efforts in rural primary care clinics by using a web-based tool called My Own Health Report (MOHR). The tool helps patients identify their cancer risk factors, set personal health goals, and connect with resources to improve their health behaviors. By implementing structured follow-up strategies, the research aims to ensure that patients receive ongoing support and access to necessary resources, particularly those facing social inequities. The goal is to create a more equitable approach to cancer prevention that addresses both behavioral risks and social needs.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this research include adults living in rural areas who are at risk for cancer and may have unmet social needs.
Not a fit: Patients who do not reside in rural areas or who do not have behavioral cancer risks may not benefit from this research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could lead to improved cancer prevention strategies that are accessible and effective for diverse patient populations.
How similar studies have performed: Previous trials using similar web-based interventions have shown success in improving health behaviors related to cancer risk, indicating potential for this approach.
