Minnesota Colorectal Cancer Roundtable Action Planning Meeting March 4, 2015

 Minnesota Cancer Alliance recognized CRC as single priority for improvement (900 deaths, perhaps 500 avoidable)  Brought together care systems, health plans, ICSI, MDH, MNCM to collaborate on improving screening rates  Recognized we had the capacity to appropriately screen all Minnesotans 2009 Roundtable

 Confusing and disparate messages about appropriate CRC screening and surveillance options and intervals  No real agreement on how to identify and stratify risk and customize screening recommendations  Little agreement on standards for colonoscopy in the state  Needed new ways for care systems to better engage and encourage patients to be screened  Needed statewide publicity campaign to get messages out about appropriate screening and surveillance benefits  Failure was expensive in not only lives and misery, but in costs of treatment What we heard in 2009

 New ICSI Guideline  MNCM new measure greater transparency, DD submission  Numerous communication strategies implemented  Clarification/simplification of billing for screening  Development of colonoscopy quality measures  Statewide rate ~66%  Some focus on racial, economic and geographic disparities and risk stratification 2010 Roundtable

 As the priority spread, we needed a forum to help connect the projects started by different organizations  Informational by design, network meetings are intended to spark ideas and help people with like interests and challenges share ideas MCA Colon Cancer Network

 CRC remains the single biggest achievable “bang for the buck” in limiting cancer death and cost in Minnesota today  Minnesota Payers, Providers and Public Health Leaders remain committed to the vision  We can do more if we work together October 10 th Roundtable 2014
