Baltimore Site Visit Report (2007)
The NCCRT visited Baltimore Medical Systems, a Federally Qualified Health Center serving over 42,000 patients in Baltimore City and Baltimore County. The purpose of the visit was to help the NCCRT gain a better understanding of issues faced at the local level in delivering colorectal cancer screening.
This is the first of a series of visits to advance the NCCRT’s understanding of real world barriers and real world solutions in screening delivery at the local level in order to identify research areas that need additional NCCRT attention and identify practical interventions that can be promoted among NCCRT members.
