During National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, we’re highlighting the importance of regular colorectal cancer screening. Experts estimate more than 158,000 new colorectal cancer cases will be diagnosed in 2026, underscoring the value of early detection.

Colorectal cancer is highly treatable when found early, and screening can detect precancerous polyps before they become serious. If you’re 45 or older, or have risk factors, consider talking with your provider about which screening option is right for you. Taking preventive steps today supports better health tomorrow.
