Colorectal cancer (CRC) screening allows for early detection and prevention through removal of polyps. In 2021, the US Preventive Services Task Force updated recommendations to screen adults aged 45 to 75 years. We analyzed 2022 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data to establish baseline prevalence estimates for those eligible for screening aged 45 to 75, including those aged 45 to 49 years who are newly eligible. Only 61.4% of adults aged 45 to 75 were up to date with CRC screening, below the Healthy People 2030 target (72.8%). Public health and clinical systems can prioritize identifying and screening adults not up to date on screening to reduce CRC risk.
