Interventions to expand cancer screening and preventive services to ADVANCE health in populations that experience health disparities
Funds trials of practical ways to get cancer screening, follow-up and referral into communities that currently go without them.
Screening only saves lives if people are screened, get their abnormal result followed up, and reach care. In populations that experience health disparities, each of those three steps fails more often. The Office of Disease Prevention and several National Institutes of Health institutes fund work on why, and on what fixes it.
The interventions in scope are screening itself, preventive services, an…
Trials of interventions to increase uptake of cancer screening, preventive services, timely follow-up of abnormal findings and referral to care in populations experiencing health disparities, addressing barriers at two or more of the patient, clinician, healthcare setting and community levels. A clinical trial is required.
