Monitoring compliance with colorectal cancer screening: Do we have it covered?

Colorectal cancer (CRC) screening saves lives through prevention and early detection of cancer. In the United States, both CRC incidence and mortality are declining, and there is evidence that these encouraging trends partly reflect screening efforts over the past few decades.1 However, there remains room for improvement as screening rates still fall short of national goals.2 In the United States, greater use of programmatic screening relative to the more commonly used opportunistic approach would likely improve uptake.
