State Advocacy Priorities
With advocates across the country, we can be on the ground advocating for policies that will increase access to colorectal cancer screening in every community.
Removing Out-of-Pocket Costs for Follow-Up Colonoscopies
If a patient completes a non-invasive colorectal cancer screening test and receives a positive result, it is critical that they then undergo a follow-up colonoscopy to complete the screening process. Unfortunately, this often results in patients being faced with out-of-pocket costs. Fight CRC is working at the state to remove this barrier to colorectal cancer screening.
