About Cologuard

What is Cologuard?
Cologuard is the brand name for a stool-based DNA test that screens for colon cancer and precancerous growths. It’s approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in adults aged 45 and older who are at average risk for colorectal cancer. Unlike a colonoscopy, Cologuard is noninvasive and can be completed entirely at home.

The test works by analyzing a stool sample for abnormal DNA markers and traces of blood, which may indicate the presence of cancer or large polyps. Cologuard is typically recommended every 3 years, as long as no abnormalities are detected. It is available by prescription only and is shipped directly to your home after your provider determines it’s appropriate.

While it’s not a replacement for colonoscopy in high-risk patients, Cologuard is often a convenient and effective screening tool for people who prefer a noninvasive alternative.

How to get Cologuard online

If you’re looking for a convenient way to screen for colon cancer, Cologuard can be prescribed online through a licensed provider. Klarity makes the process simple and efficient, allowing you to skip the clinic visit.

To get started:

  1. Connect with a licensed provider via Klarity’s secure telehealth platform
  2. Share your age, medical history, and any colon cancer risk factors
  3. If eligible, your provider will issue a prescription for Cologuard
  4. The test kit will be shipped directly to your home
  5. Collect your stool sample and send it back in the pre-paid packaging
  6. Review your results with your provider and discuss next steps

Your provider may recommend other screening options based on your individual health profile.

What does Cologuard cost?

Cologuard is only available as a brand-name test. Many insurance plans, including Medicare, cover it for eligible adults aged 45 and older once every 3 years.

Brand NameFormatPrice
CologuardAt-home kit$500–$600 (single test)

And, with or without insurance, you can take advantage of prescription discount programs from GoodRx, drugs.com, SingleCareRx, and others.

How does Cologuard compare to other screening options?

There are several ways to screen for colorectal cancer. Each method has different advantages, levels of invasiveness, and accuracy.

Test NameInvasivenessFrequencyAccuracy (Sensitivity)Requires Prep
CologuardNoninvasiveEvery 3 years~92% for colon cancerNo
FIT (Fecal Immunochemical Test)NoninvasiveEvery year~74%No
ColonoscopyInvasiveEvery 10 years~95%+ (for polyps & cancer)Yes

Cologuard is a good option for people at average risk who prefer noninvasive screening. However, those with higher risk or concerning symptoms may need a colonoscopy for more accurate and thorough evaluation.
