Brief Summary:
Non-attendance to out-patient endoscopic procedures is high among underserved blacks. The overall goal of this proposal is to evaluate the effect of directly involving a social contact (chosen by the patient) on completion and quality of out-patient endoscopy recommended for the patient by his/her primary care physician, or after scheduling by the gastrointestinal endoscopist.
Improved adherence and better quality of procedures are postulated with involvement of social contacts.

Detailed Description:
The overarching goal of this proposal is to determine whether directly involving a social contact, chosen by the patient, will improve the completion and quality of scheduled out-patient endoscopy among blacks.
These are three sub-projects:
Project 1: Involves recruiting 400 patients referred for colonoscopy by their primary care physicians
Project 2: Involves recruiting 400 patients scheduled for colonoscopy by their endoscopist
Project 3: Involves recruiting 200 patients scheduled for upper endoscopy by their endoscopists
