Abstract
Principles to guide and inform population-based screening decisions cover a wide range of aspects beyond the screening test. Colorectal cancer (CRC) meets these requirements for individuals at moderate risk aged 50 to 69. In Switzerland, screening using a biennial faecal occult blood test or colonoscopy every 10 years is reimbursed free of deductible in 12 programs covering 15 cantons. This article assesses the appropriateness of systematic screening from age 45 in the Swiss context. Prioritizing measures to raise awareness among healthcare professionals and high-risk subjects rather than lowering the age of eligibility would not only be more sensible but would also benefit to the population over 50 years old.
