Well, if a false positive you’d need the full colonoscopy anyway. What I see with healthy people who have no intestinal issues they start with the most invasive looking not just for cancers, polyps etc.

A cologuard test comes up no cancer there’s no need for further invasive issues. A colonoscopy is expensive sans the right insurance unless you can just for out a few grand to get a clean bill of health when cologuard runs a few hundred dollars.
