Effective immediately, SISC is enhancing colorectal and breast cancer screening coverage for PPO members as part of our ongoing commitment to removing barriers to preventive care.
Previously, if a screening identified a concern, such as a polyp or breast lump, the service could be reclassified as “diagnostic”, potentially subjecting members to deductibles and coinsurance. Now, SISC PPO members pay $0 through the full screening process for colorectal and breast cancer, including all follow-up testing, such as a diagnostic colonoscopy or breast ultrasound. Member cost-sharing applies to treatment. Please note HMO and Kaiser plans already include this coverage.
Reminder: SISC PPO members age 45 and older can order a free InSure® ONE™ FIT kit from Quest Diagnostics every year. The kit is completed at home and mailed back, with no doctor's visit needed. Because the FIT kit is designed to be repeated annually, members who screened last year can order a new kit at no cost this year. Order at Quest Diagnostics (register with code SISC2026).
