abstract: 'Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer mortality

  worldwide. CRC incidence and mortality can be reduced through screening.

  However, in the United States, screening participation remains

  suboptimal, particularly among underserved populations such as the

  uninsured, recent immigrants, and racial/ethnic minority groups.

  Increasing screening rates among underserved populations will reduce the

  US burden of CRC. In this commentary focusing on underserved

  populations, we highlight the public health impact of CRC screening,

  list key challenges to screening the underserved, and review promising

  approaches to boost screening rates. We identify four key policy and

  research priorities to increase screening among underserved populations:

  1) actively promote the message, ``the best test is the one that gets

  done{''''}; 2) develop and implement methods to identify unscreened

  individuals within underserved population groups for screening

  interventions; 3) develop and implement approaches for organized

  screening delivery; and 4) fund and enhance programs and policies that

  provide access to screening, diagnostic follow-up, and CRC treatment for

  underserved populations. This commentary represents the consensus of a

  diverse group of experts in cancer control and prevention, epidemiology,

  gastroenterology, and primary care from across the country who formed

  the Coalition to Boost Screening among the Underserved in the United

  States. The group was organized and held its first annual working group

  meeting in conjunction with the World Endoscopy Organization''s annual

  Colorectal Cancer Screening Committee meeting during Digestive Disease

  Week 2012 in San Diego, California.'
