Understanding the Procedure
What is a colonoscopy and what can it detect?
A colonoscopy is a procedure where Dr. Earl examines your entire large intestine using a colonoscope — a flexible fiber optic scope equipped with a camera and light.
Dr. Earl can identify various problems in the colon, including early signs of cancer, inflamed tissue, ulcers, and bleeding. Additionally, polyps — which have the potential to develop into cancer — can be removed during the procedure.

No Surprises
What About Insurance?
Insurance covers a screening colonoscopy with no out-of-pocket costs under the Affordable Care Act. But it does not cover a diagnostic colonoscopy — and that distinction can cost you thousands!
Screening vs. Diagnostic: What's the Difference?
A screening is a routine preventive exam — no symptoms, just peace of mind. A diagnostic colonoscopy happens when you have symptoms, a prior history of colon polyps, or when the doctor finds and removes a polyp during the procedure. Even if you go in for a screening, the moment a polyp is found and removed, insurance can reclassify it as diagnostic — leaving you with the bill.
Typically, a colonoscopy results in bills from 4 different entities:
Colonoscopy KC does not participate with any insurance plans. All services are provided on a self-pay basis, and payment is due one week prior to the procedure.
