A take-home colorectal cancer screening kit is one part of the recommended screening for colorectal cancer. Easy-to-use screening kits will be distributed to men and women age 50 or older who have not been screened for colorectal cancer in the past 12 months. This is a screening test and does not replace a doctor's examination or other screening procedure. Test kits may only be picked up by the person who will use the test.
