Description

AIM:

We want to improve our colorectal screening rates for Tuesday JHAP patients to 40% by March 2016.

We will assess monthly rates of the % of patients who received CRC screening over the past 10 years.

This will improve overall health maintenance, and find/prevent pre-cancerous lesions. This potentially improves the life expectancy of our population.
