Free Colorectal Cancer Screening Kits Sent to Eligible Alliant Health Plan Members
Beginning June 9, 2025, eligible Alliant Health Plan Members will receive an at-home colorectal cancer screening kit delivered directly to their mailbox – at no cost to them.
As part of our ongoing efforts to support colorectal cancer screening, Alliant Health Plans has partnered with Exact Sciences to provide Cologuard® test kits to eligible members who have a recommendation from the Exact Science clinical team. Letters announcing the program were mailed out by Exact Sciences on May 27, 2025.
What is Cologuard?
Recommended for adults 45 and older, the Cologuard test is a prescription-based use-at-home colon cancer screening test that looks for both abnormal DNA and blood in stool. The results are usually ready in two weeks and – if needed – a follow-up colonoscopy is covered as a preventative screening under Alliant Members’ plan benefits.
Why it Matters – Colorectal Cancer Screening Helps Save Lives
Colorectal cancer screening is a crucial step in early detection and helps ensure Alliant Members have access to best-in-class screening options. The Cologuard test offers a convenient, non-invasive option to help Alliant Members stay on track with their preventive care and reduce the risk of complications related to colorectal cancer.
