Colorectal cancer is the second most common type of cancer cited in malpractice claims naming CRICO-insured physicians. To address the risk issues, CRICO convened an advisory group of primary care providers and gastroenterologists to develop a colorectal cancer screening algorithm. As a decision support tool, the CRICO Prevention and Early Detection of Colorectal Cancer: A Decision Support Tool is designed to help primary care providers and specialists.

For questions about the CRICO Colorectal Care Decision Support Tool (2019), contact CRICO Senior Editor Jock Hoffman.
