Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening prevalence within the past year (Age 55-69)
Maps and Data of Model-Based Small Area Estimates

Definition for PSA test within the past year (2011 and forward):

For PSA test within the past year, a man aged 55-69 must have reported having at least one PSA test in his life. Furthermore, he should have had the most recent one within the past year by the time of interview.

For the data periods 2011-2019, the PSA questions were asked in BRFSS in the even years as part of the core questionnaire for all states, and in NHIS in 2013, 2015, 2018, and 2019. The questions were worded in similar ways on the two surveys.

Available estimates are for the time periods 2012-2016 and 2018-2019, and on maps and in data tables by county, health service area (HSA) and state. Click on the map to view data values and confidence intervals for individual regions.

Common Quantiles are calculated by pooling all years of data for the same outcome, geography and sex groupings. Use common quantiles to better show changes across different years for the same outcome compared to using quantiles calculated based on individual year's data.
