Cancer screening: reaching underserved communities

By William Seidman Cancer screening is a valuable tool for improving the reach of US health care – and yet many communities are underserved. Organizational Resources Group is working with the American Cancer Society (ACS) to remedy this, by building a model using the IdeaNet/Cerebyte approach to successful screening programs. In the words of ORG, their IdeaNet can “turn strategy into action, close the performance gap, standardize best practices, and support effective succession planning.” Initial results have been positive – and once the model is proven, ORG will work with the ACS to  promote it nationally. Orgnizational Resources Group will take a leading role in “coaching” community action teams to deploy the American Cancer Society’s colorectal cancer screening program. The potential for saving lives using this IdeaNet/Cerebyte program is awesome.]]>
