On March 2, representatives from NJ Community Health Centers attended the NJ Colorectal Cancer Stakeholders Meeting.

The meeting was organized by the American Cancer Society and held at Johnson & Johnson in New Brunswick.  Representing Zufall Health was Dr. Rina Ramirez (far left), Chief Medical Officer, and Frances Palm (far right), Chief Operating Officer. The diverse group of participants discussed ways to reach the national goal of screening 80% of people ages 50-74 for colon cancer by 2018.  Zufall Health has signed the “80% By 2018 Pledge” and is working in partnership with patients to reach this important goal.
