And now, Medicare,

Colorectal cancer (cancer of the
colon or rectum) is the second-
leading cancer killer in the U.S.
Screening tests can detect
colorectal polyps, which are small
grovahs that may become cancer
if not removed. Screening tests
also can find colorectal cancer
early, when there may not be any
symptoms and when treatment
can be most effective.
Most West Virginia insurance plans
understand the importance of
colorectal cancer screening and
prm~ide coverage for these tests
for beneficiaries.
Talk with your doctor about your
screening options.
