Colorectal cancer is the second leading cancer killer in the US among men and women combined, but colorectal cancer can often be prevented or found at an earlier stage with regular screening. Starting at age 50, men and women at average risk for developing colorectal cancer should get screened. There are several screening options available, including simple take-home options.

ACS CAN Moment Removing Barriers to Colorectal Cancer Screening Act This is another simple fundraiser that is very easy to organize. Contestants have to balance a coin on top of a floating lemon for a count of five seconds. Whatever coin they use they win 5 times the amount. Try it at home - its not as easy as it looks! Ground Rules: No side conversations/one person speaking at a time Keep it to an Hour Start meeting on time Use phones with respect Please contact: Brian Gibson Brian.Gibson@cancer.org ext ACS CAN is working to close the loophole resulting in big colonoscopy bills for Medicare patients. Under Medicare, there should be no co-pay for a colonoscopy. But, if the doctor removes a polyp, you can wake up to a big bill. Ask Congress to end the loophole that allows this surprise charge. We are fortunate in Ohio to have one of our senators as a sponsor of the removing barriers bill. You can thank Sen. Sherrod Brown on social media and use our hashtag. #CloseCRCLoophole while asking Senator Portman to co-sponsor the legislation. In our state we have bi-partisan support for removing barriers in congress with 9 members co-sponsoring, 6 Republicans and 3 Democrats. 5.
