[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The new guidelines recommends starting at 45 but if you go to a GI doc they may recommend one and insurance should cover.[/quote] NP. I had a recommendation from GI doctor and my insurance said they don't pay until age 50. They have not enbraced the new guidelines. Even with prescriptions/ recommendation, they refused to cover it until 50. The hospital kept calling me to schedule and told them I would be back in 2 years.[/quote] My insurance covered it at age 40 because of family history. [/quote] I'm PP you replied to. I also have family history of colon cancer on my mother's side, insurance didn't care. I have terrible insurance, every year it gets worse and worse (my company keeps switching plans yearly to cheaper ones). I asked about the cologuard test instead and my GI said with hemorrhoids, which I have periodically (sorry for TMI), it would not be accurate since any blood present could be from that.[/quote]
