This webinar explores how to issue National Bowel Cancer Screening Program kits to eligible patients in your practice. This ‘alternative access to kits model’ is in addition to the program’s mail-out model where kits are automatically mailed to eligible people. Learn about the benefits of engaging patients in population screening and discover effective methods for doing so. The webinar will cover how to use the National Cancer Screening Register to quickly bulk order kits and issue them to patients and the benefits of ongoing automatic screening reminders. This comprehensive session will equip healthcare providers with the tools and strategies to enhance patient care and increase bowel cancer screening in your community.
