Because early detection can save lives, Modern Woodmen offers a free colorectal screening kit (ColoCARE) to members.
A self-test that can be conducted in the home, the screening kit helps you and your doctor detect possible warning signs of colon and rectal diseases. When detected early, these diseases can often be successfully treated.
