Adaptation and pilot implementation of a hereditary cancer risk-assessment tool for primary care.

Background: Family history-based risk assessment for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer is guideline-recommended but clinical implementation remains limited. This is likely, in part, because it adds to the limited time primary care providers (PCPs) have to implement all guideline-recommended care.

Methods: We adapted Family History Screening 7 (or FHS7), designed for administration by a PCP, for self-report by primary care patients.
