Partnerships between clinics and Medicaid health plans may address these barriers. In a large pragmatic randomized trial, we conducted a qualitative analysis to identify ways in which practice facilitation supported the implementation of a partnered health plan\u2010clinic intervention of mailed FIT and patient navigation to improve CRC screening among rural Medicaid enrollees.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In the SMARTER CRC pragmatic trial, study team practice facilitators supported rural clinics and Medicaid health plans in implementing mailed FIT and patient navigation for follow\u2010up colonoscopy. Qualitative data collected during the first year of implementation included clinic and health plan interviews, clinic contact logs, and monthly periodic reflections with the facilitator team.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Findings<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Practice facilitation was needed to support both clinics and health plans in the study.
