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.'
