Abstract

INTRODUCTION: To evaluate the impact of the updated United States Preventive Services Task Force colorectal cancer (CRC) screening recommendations on screening rates in a large health system. METHODS: We reviewed Massachusetts General Brigham electronic health record data for individuals eligible for CRC screening between January 3, 2020, and January 5, 2023, and calculated whether age-eligible individuals were up-to-date with CRC screening. RESULTS: There were large declines in the percentage of individuals who were up-to-date with CRC screening for all racial/ethnic groups, with non-Hispanic Asians being largest (−13.5%). DISCUSSION: Health systems should implement culturally tailored strategies to reach and screen newly eligible individuals for CRC screening to prevent worsening disparities in CRC.
