Changing Health Systems to Increase Colorectal Cancer Screening

What to know

This cooperative agreement funds recipients who will partner with health systems and primary care clinics with low colorectal cancer screening prevalence.

Overview

Recipients will work with their partners to use evidence-based interventions (EBIs) to increase colorectal cancer screening among people aged 45 to 75 years. The focus is on populations that have low screening prevalence and experience barriers to screening.

Partner clinics must have screening prevalence below the national, regional, or local average. Programs should emphasize identifying populations that have lower screening prevalence or clinic sub-populations who may need more support to complete the screening process.
