What to know
Evidence-based interventions are strategies that are proven to work. For cancer screening, these interventions improve the quality of cancer screening and increase the number of people screened.
Introduction
The Community Preventive Services Task Force recommends several interventions to increase screening for breast, cervical, and colorectal cancers. They include actions designed to reach patients and those designed to reach health care providers.
Evidence suggests that combining two or more strategies increases community demand for and access to cancer screening and lowers costs. Strategies should be added to your clinic's daily work process in ways that ensure they will last over time and work well for different cancer programs.
