Description
The percentage of adults, ages 45-75, screened for colorectal cancer (colonoscopy in the past ten years or stool-based test in the last year). This data is reported by calendar year, not fiscal year. The MMR reports data from the previous calendar year (i.e. FY24 = CY23). Because of this, MMR data through June FY24 accounts for CY23 data through December.
