The goal of this study is to find the best ways to increase colorectal cancer (CRC)
screening.
screening.
Colorectal Cancer is preventable and curable but is still the second most common cause of
cancer death in the U.S. Minorities and those with low income have more CRC than middle and
high income Whites.. They also get fewer CRC screening tests. Low knowledge of CRC screening
may, in part, drive this lower test use. We need new ways to improve CRC screening in primary
care clinics where many minority and uninsured patients receive health care.
