45 is the new 50 for colorectal cancer screening conversations. More patients are now eligible to screen, and given the impact of COVID-19 on colonoscopy scheduling, it is more important than ever to carefully discuss the pros and cons of colorectal cancer screening options, including stool testing (FIT and Cologuard), and colonoscopy.
 
To help support patients to consider which test is right for them, decision aids are available to order in Epic. The tool outlines the options to consider a colonoscopy vs stool-based tests. It's also available in 7 different languages.
