What the money can and cannot pay for
This program will fund implementation of EBIs and other strategies in partnership with health systems with the goal of instituting organized screening programs. In addition, this program will fund a small number of awardees to pay for direct screening and follow-up services for a limited number of individuals that belong to the Program Priority Population. Component 1: Health Systems Change to Increase and Improve Colorectal Cancer (CRC) Screening. To increase capacity and support organized CRC screening, awardees must partner with health systems, such as federally qualified health centers (FQHCs), health plan clinic networks, large physician practices, Medicaid, Medicare, and insurance plans that serve the applicant--defined target population to: a) implement EBIs identified in The Community Guide to increase CRC screening and b) measure outcomes for evaluation. To increase CRC screening and follow-up rates, awardee activities that may be funded include, but are not limited to: formally partnering with an FQHC to implement a provider-oriented intervention such as provider reminders, formally partnering with a state primary care association to create or modify FQHC operational models, or formally partnering with an insurer to implement client-oriented EBIs such as client reminders.
