New guidelines have been suggested by the American Cancer Society. The new recommendations say screening should begin at age 45 for people at average risk. Previously, the guideline-recommended screening begins at age 50 for people at average risk.
It is not yet clear whether all insurance companies will pay for these enhanced recommendations.
