ColonoscopyAssist

Best for

Uninsured people who are due for colorectal cancer screening and have put it off because of cost.

Why Kave includes this

A colonoscopy is the textbook case of a procedure quoted as one number and billed as four — facility, physician, anaesthesia, pathology — and the surprise bills land weeks later. Bundling all four into one prepaid price removes the specific failure mode. Kave rates the patient impact high because a screening deferred for cost is the most expensive kind of delay there is.

Expected cost

One prepaid package price covering facility, physician, anaesthesia, and pathology, published before booking.

Insurance requirement

Cash-pay. Does not bill insurance. If you have coverage, screening colonoscopy is usually a no-cost preventive benefit — check that first.

Who qualifies

Open to anyone within the participating centres' service areas. No income test.
