Free Colorectal Cancer Screening If you are 45 or older or have a family history of colorectal cancer, the American Cancer Society recommends that you be screened for signs of colorectal cancer. Precancerous polyps and early-stage colorectal cancer don't always cause symptoms, especially at first. This means that someone could have polyps or colorectal cancer and not know it. This is why having a screening test is so important. Here's how to participate: Appointments required by calling toll-free 1-877-411-2762 anytime or register online at www.mclaren.org/crcscreening. A signed consent form is required and the kit must be picked up in person. Follow the directions for completing the simple stool sample test in the privacy of your home. Once finished, mail the kit back in the postage paid envelope. You can expect your results 2-3 weeks after mailing your kit.
