Dollars and Sense: Program, Patient, and Clinical Perspectives About Costs of Colorectal Cancer Along the Cancer Continuum

Session Moderator: Juan Rodriguez, MPH, MS, CDC

Of cancers that affect both men and women, colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in the United States. Screening helps find colorectal cancer at an early stage, when treatment often leads to a cure. This session addresses the costs of colorectal cancer screening and treatment from three unique perspectives.
