However, it should be noted that the laws may vary slightly according to which state you reside in, so call your insurance provider to see exactly what array of tests are covered under your plan. For those who are Medicare beneficiaries, there are specific screening tests for colorectal cancer which are covered for different demographic groups, such as by age or level of risk. For people under Medicaid, states are authorized to cover colorectal cancer screening tests. However, states are not required by the government to cover screening tests in people who haven’t experienced any symptoms.
