Quality is a priority for CommunityCare

Why It Matters

Colorectal cancer is the second leading cancer killer in the U.S among cancers that affect both men and women.

But it doesn’t have to be. Routine screening for colorectal cancer beginning at age 45 can save lives!

Talk to your doctor about risk factors and frequency of screening that is right for you.

There are different ways to be screened for colon cancer, some which include at home testing.

• Colonoscopy
