Colon Cancer Screening: Health Center Perspectives and Screening Recommendations
October 2024
Medically disadvantaged communities, notably residents of public housing and the HUD-assisted are less likely than the general U.S. population to perform their colorectal cancer screening within recommended guidelines and more likely to be diagnosed with colorectal cancer. In this infographic, NCHPH will provide the results of their analyses of the 2022 HRSA Health Center Patient Survey, specifically results which provide insight into the colorectal cancer screening disparities experienced by residents of public housing and the HUD-assisted and the promising practices supported by the data analyses.
