Center for Health Services Research, Regenstrief Institute Inc, Indianapolis, IN, United States of America.
Objectives: In two large university affiliated healthcare systems, we examined trends in colorectal cancer (CRC) screening both prior to and during the COVID-19 pandemic to compare the trends in non-invasive screening tests and colonoscopy.
Materials And Methods: In this retrospective time-trend analysis, we obtained the numbers of colonoscopies and non-invasive tests performed monthly during the pandemic and the year prior to it. We obtained colonoscopy data from five endoscopy units with the indication determined by dual independent review.

Kaiser Permanente Northern California Division of Research, Oakland, CA 94612.
Objectives: The COVID-19 pandemic reduced colorectal cancer (CRC) screening, but the rebound in testing and outcomes following the pandemic has not been widely reported. We evaluated CRC test utilization and colorectal neoplasia detection among screening eligible patients in a large health system in 2020 and 2021, compared to 2019 (pre-pandemic).
Methods: Using a retrospective cohort study design, fecal immunochemical test (FIT) and colonoscopy utilization, FIT positivity, and neoplasia detection were evaluated annually in 2019-2021 among Kaiser Permanente Northern California patients aged 50-75 years overall and by sex, age, race and ethnicity, and spoken language preference.
