Given by Whitney Jones, MD on February 3rd, 2021

"Since its inception in 2008, The KCCSP and its designated advisory committee have engaged with two primary goals: first overseeing a state-based program providing CRC screening covering – colonoscopy, cutting edge take at home stool testing, and if indicated genetic testing -- for AT RISK and uninsured and underinsured Kentuckians. Second, and more broadly, increasing evidence-based CRC screening rates for all Kentuckians.The KCCSP has been a cornerstone in our commonwealth’s nation leading improvements in CRC screening rates by removing barriers to access."
