Abstract
Using 2012 - 2014 data on health information seeking, we analyzed the association between online information seeking and guideline concordance in breast and prostate cancer screening. No statistically significant association was found between online information seeking and guideline concordance, after adjusting for potentially confounding influences. We decomposed the differences in screening rates between online information seekers and non-seekers to gauge the effect of online information seeking on screening decisions at individual-level. The effect of online information seeking differed by gender. These findings can be used to tailor approaches to accurately inform patients on cancer screening and to provide higher quality of preventive care.
