Overview
Brief Summary
The goal of this study is to find the best ways to increase colorectal cancer (CRC) screening.
Detailed Description
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.
