Monthly Variations in Colorectal Cancer Screening Tests Among Federally Qualified Health Center Patients in Missouri: Quality Improvement Project
Home-based tests are becoming popular, replacing the gold standard colonoscopy, but need to be repeated more frequently. Monthly variation of screening over the course of a year suggests that CRC screening efforts and patient care may be less than ideal. Months with lower rates of screening for each type of CRC test represent opportunities for improving CRC screening.
