Study Arms (2)
Systematic provision of screening tests by GPs
The general practitioner systematically delivers the screening kit with justification and modalities of realization at an even age between 50 and 74 years to the patient who comes to consult for whatever reason, who is at intermediate risk of colorectal cancer and who falls under the generalized screening. The practitioner is helped in his approach by an initial training in the identification of the age, delivery of a poster, a study sheet, stickers and goodies, sending a quarterly letter on the progress of the study and contact with the coordination team.
Delivery of screening test according to GP's usual practice
the GP will issue the CRC screening kit in accordance with his/her usual practice.
Interventions
