Colorectal Cancer – Observations 1.The low risk are dealt with relatively quickly and effectively – more specific 2.70% of participants recommended to see a GC are still waiting for an appointment, up to 18 months TPMI QoC Quarterly Report

Colorectal Cancer – Next Phase Intervention Recommendations 1.Use an electronic decision tree to provide screening recommendations to families. Only refer those at the highest risk to a Genetic Counsellor 2.In diagnosing Lynch Syndrome, we recommend a pathology first approach rather than a family first approach. Refer patients with IHC negative for MMR protein for further genetic workup. TPMI QoC Quarterly Report
