Screening Can Help You Stay Healthy

Why Screening Matters
- Colorectal cancer often has no early signs
- Screening can catch it early or prevent it
altogether - Covered by most insurance, including Oregon
Health Plan, Apple Health, and Medicare
About 1 in 3 adults (ages 50 to 75) are not getting screened as recommended.
Too many are missing out on life-saving screening.
