Abstract
Conclusion: The African American/Black race per the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention has the highest CRC death making early CRC screening an imperative. While the Wisconsin Collaborative for Healthcare Quality ranks Aurora Health Care as 8th out of 20 systems in Wisconsin (77.6% Q3 2014-Q2 2015) local data analysis identified age as the largest disparity gap. Analyzing local population data REAL/Gender provides key insights into support initiatives to reduce health disparity gaps and further our progress toward achieving the Triple Aim for health care.
