It measures the percentage of those who, after receiving an invitation to participate in the Bowel Cancer Screening Programme (BCSP), responded and were adequately screened within six months. The data is sourced from NHS England and provides insight into screening engagement at the general practice level. </p> <h2>Rationale</h2> <p> Bowel cancer screening is a critical public health intervention aimed at early detection and treatment of colorectal cancer. Increasing the percentage of eligible individuals who complete screening can lead to earlier diagnoses, improved outcomes, and reduced mortality. This indicator supports efforts to monitor and enhance participation in cancer screening programmes, aligning with broader goals to improve cancer detection rates across the population. </p> <h2>Numerator</h2> <p> The numerator is defined as the number of persons registered to a general practice, aged 60 to 75, who were invited for bowel cancer screening in the previous 12 months and were adequately screened following an initial response within six months of the invitation. </p> <h2>Denominator</h2> <p> The denominator includes the total number of persons aged 60 to 74 who were invited for bowel cancer screening in the previous 12 months. </p> <h2>Caveats</h2> <p> This indicator may be based on a small number of patients for some practices, which can affect reliability. Additionally, data may be less reliable during periods of GP practice mergers or boundary changes. For data up to 2021/22, only practices with a list size of at least 1,000 were included. </p> <h2>External References</h2> <p> More information can be found on the <a href="https://fingertips.phe.org.uk/search/92601" target="_blank">Fingertips Public Health Profiles</a> website. </p> <p><a href="/pages/birmingham-and-solihull-icp-outcomes-framework-inequalities-explorer/" target="_blank">Click here</a> to explore more from the Birmingham and Solihull Integrated Care Partnerships Outcome Framework.</p> | https://www.cityobservatory.birmingham.gov.uk/explore/dataset/bowel-cancer-screening-uptake-icp-outcomes-framework-birmingham-and-solihull/ | Birmingham and Solihull ICP | https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/doc/open-government-licence/version/3/ | 2026-02-17T15:13:59+00:00 | 2026-02-17T15:13:59+00:00 | ["Cancer & Aging", "bowel cancer", "cancer screening", "health", "icp", "inequalities explorer", "inequality", "integrated care partnership", "local authority", "local authority district", "quality and outcomes framework"] | ["https://www.cityobservatory.birmingham.gov.uk/explore/?refine.theme=Health"] | https://www.cityobservatory.birmingham.gov.uk/explore/dataset/bowel-cancer-screening-uptake-icp-outcomes-framework-birmingham-and-solihull/ | https://www.cityobservatory.birmingham.gov.uk/explore/dataset/bowel-cancer-screening-uptake-icp-outcomes-framework-birmingham-and-solihull/ |
