Colorectal Cancer Screening State Profiles
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC’s) Colorectal Cancer Screening State Profiles provide state-specific colorectal cancer screening trends from 2012 through 2016, modeled county-level colorectal cancer screening estimates from 2014, and screening prevalence by race/ethnicity, sex, insurance status, and age group for all for all 50 states, DC, and Puerto Rico.
These profiles can help comprehensive cancer control programs, colorectal cancer control programs, and others with planning interventions and sharing current colorectal cancer screening estimates in their state.
Evaluation: Screening statistics come from CDC’s Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, CDC’s National Center for Health Statistics, and other sources. View the footnotes of the state profiles to learn more.
