Risk level based solely on FH and screening from self-report health questionnaire or EMR data: Familial risk level is taken from self-reported data; screening information is taken from either self-reported data or EMR data.

  • CRC—colorectal cancer, EMR—electronic medical record, FH—family history.

  • ↵* For CRC screening, average risk includes average and low risk; elevated risk includes mildly increased risk and moderate to high risk.

  • ↵† Correct CRC screening for moderate to high risk includes colonoscopy only.
