Abstract
Organized, population-based colorectal cancer (CRC) screening has been implemented in various cities of China in order to control its rising threat. General practitioners (GPs) play a crucial role as central coordinators among potential screening participants, service providers and program organizers. However, rates of participation and adherence to CRC screening program remain low, whilst its program performance indicators are increasingly receiving more attention. In this review, we summarize the latest literature focusing on strategies to optimize the role of GPs in different stages of organized CRC screening programs, which could substantially enhance screening efficiency and cost-effectiveness of population-based screening programs. Key words: Colorectal neoplasms; Screening; General practitioners; Quality control
