Coalition of health systems’ administrators, nurses, physicians, public health workers, epidemiologists
Stems from the Wisconsin Comprehensive Control Plan
Goal: Promote access to quality cancer care
Specifically taken on the task of improving colorectal cancer (CRC) care in Milwaukee and Waukesha Counties
![Page 5: Sukit Ringwala MD/MPH Candidate 9 May 2008. Background Purpose Project Methods Findings Discussion Conclusion](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649da15503460f94a8d270/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the 2nd leading cause of death from cancer in the US
150,000 new cases per year in the US 50,000 deaths per year in the US Ranks 3rd in cancer incidence and
mortality within Milwaukee County
![Page 6: Sukit Ringwala MD/MPH Candidate 9 May 2008. Background Purpose Project Methods Findings Discussion Conclusion](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649da15503460f94a8d270/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Modalities that reduce CRC mortality Fecal Occult Blood Tests (FOBTs) Colonoscopy
Lower Screening rates in: The poor Recent immigrants People with lower educational levels Minorities
Milwaukee County area Breast, cervical, and prostate cancer
screening at little or no cost Few programs in place to address access to
CRC screening for populations in need
![Page 7: Sukit Ringwala MD/MPH Candidate 9 May 2008. Background Purpose Project Methods Findings Discussion Conclusion](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649da15503460f94a8d270/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Create a colon cancer screening program Address disparities to access, specifically for
the uninsured Increase screening rates Decrease the time between screening and
diagnosis Goal: To improve mortality in disparate
populations by providing treatment earlier

Literature review conducted using PubMed Query: colon cancer, screening programs,
navigator…etc. Other criteria:
Focus on urban programs Address screening for uninsured Targeted to minorities Target to patients of lower socioeconomic
status

Literature review conducted using PubMed for appropriate screening modality
Query: fecal occult blood test, colonoscopy, IFOBT, FIT…etc.
Criteria: Study year >2000 AGA or USPSTF supported

Time Interval Sensitivity(%) Specificity(%)
gFOBT† Annual 65 86
FIT Annual 82 97
Results are for average risk adults ≥ 50 years old† Serial tests performed using Hemoccult SENSA
CRC Screening Tests
gFOBT, guaiac - based fecal occult blood test; FIT, fecal immunochemical test

Strengths Successfully enhanced screening for breast
and prostate cancer Studies show improvement in screening rates CDC’s CRC screening demonstration project
has laid framework Limitations
Small sample size in studies of review Studies used only one clinical site Other studies may have been missed in query

FIT Strengths:
1) Better sensitivity and specificity than gFOBT2) Fewer demands placed on patient3) Medicare reimbursement
Limitations:1) Sensitivity and specificity may vary depending
on manufacturer2) More costly than gFOBT3) Not established in clinical practice

A CRC patient navigator program could be successful in Milwaukee County
Points to consider: Cost Health systems support Scalability of model Timeline
![Page 18: Sukit Ringwala MD/MPH Candidate 9 May 2008. Background Purpose Project Methods Findings Discussion Conclusion](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649da15503460f94a8d270/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Construct a navigator model tailored for Milwaukee County and its health systems
Obtain stakeholder support Milwaukee health care systems WI Comprehensive Cancer Control Program Colorectal Cancer Task Forces American Cancer Society
Implementation plan Obtain source of funding Initiate pilot program on a smaller scale within
Milwaukee
