*If a physician performs a colonoscopy screening and a polyp or abnormality is found, per Medicare guidelines, the procedure is now considered a diagnostic colonoscopy and not a screening. Outpatient surgery cost share applies to diagnostic colonoscopies performed to diagnose a medical problem. Therefore, if you have a medical condition, such as gastrointestinal symptoms or further testing is required, the procedure and/or the subsequent testing is considered diagnostic and contractual cost sharing for Medicare-covered surgical services may apply.
