Colorectal Cancer Screening Rates

New York Finger Lakes Region and Western New York

The biggest disparity in colorectal screening rates is among Latinos, according to the 2016 NYS BRFSS. There are also lower rates among the lower income and rural populations. Insurance is an important factor, as those with private insurance have significantly higher screening rates than Medicaid enrollees or the uninsured.
