This test should be pulled of the market. After false positive test Cologuard,the colonoscopy was negative. It took almost a 6 months agony until the colonoscopy was complete. Do not trust this test. It’s a horrible lie and you pay high price.

This product should be pulled off the market. Had the most miserable experience of my life with an absolutely HELLACIOUS prep process for a colonoscopy, because of a FALSE POSITIVE from this bunch of quacks. Colonoscopy was negative. It also took Cologuard almost 3 months to notify me of test results. Three. Months. B/c they sent the info. to the WRONG DOCTOR! Bonus points: Billing switched from "screening" to "diagnostic" due to Cologuard "positive." Cost me $454 "co-pay" for a procedure I didn't need. If I could give a product a negative rating, Cologuard would be it. Stay as far away from this bogus product as you can. NEVER AGAIN!

Because of Cologuard false positive, I had to go through a horrible prep that caused 24 pills to sit in my stomach for 15 hrs due to my gastroparesis & dr could only see 40% of my colon which showed 0, nothing. They want me to do a 2 day prep now & come back, which I refuse & pay another $225. Not doing it! I should’ve known better than to do your test. My last test in 2014 was fine. I should’ve just left it at that & never had any other test done! I’ve been sick for 3 days & out of work for 2 days. So I’ve lost $225 + 2 days pay because of your cologuard test!

They were supposed to have UPS pick up my test kit and sent me a confirmation number but UPS still has not come for it so I called Cologuard. The woman I spoke to practically called me a liar and said there was no pickup. I hung up on her and called back. The next woman found my confirmation number and said it might be 9:00pm before UPS came. I am still waiting but will probably have to take it to UPS myself. Next time my Doctor wants a test he can refer me to another company. They need to talk to some of their employees about rudeness.

This has been a constant headache from the start way back in August until now in November Fist test ordered in November done the test sent in couldn’t be read . Did a second test after I came back from a vacation in September sent out. Now it’s November no results for doctor or me now they want to do another one I ask for results of last one they state I have to request the results this is just stupid hope to hell the results are neg they said they sent results to my dr we shall what a circus e act science is

Cologuard continues to send unsuspecting people a Cologuard test kit to their home. The test kit I received today was never ordered by my health care provider or my current insurance company. The test kit was delivered by UPS. When I called the Cologuard "customer service line", I was told no information would be provided until I gave them identifiers to include DOB, email, and more. The rep stated the information I requested was "HIPAA protected". Which is a true fact, except that I was calling about an unexpected package for a medical procedure that had been delivered to me today. The UPS tracking label bearing my name and address is not HIPPA protected. A corporation sending out test kits for patient medical procedures should be able to track their deliveries and determine the destiny of any package by the UPS tracking number. The Cologuard rep refused to accept the UPS tracking number and refused to provide ANY relevant information until I provided him with HIPAA protected information. I disconnected the call. Then I began to research the company only to find a high number of complaints on numerous sites, class action lawsuits won against the company, and more than I have time to review. If you receive any unsolicited Cologuard test kit, treat it as you would a bomb. Report it to authorities. Inform your insurance company. If you contact the sender, do not provide them with any information beyond what is on the label of their delivery and record/document EVERYTHING. They are continuing a FEDERAL LEVEL scam on people and likely doing so with previously hacked data.

I regret getting the ColoGuard test. On their site they admit they have false positives and negatives. I also learned from my insurance company that because I did a ColoGuard test, I am precluded from receiving a covered Colonoscopy (or any colon screening) for 10 years, which means I have to pay out of pocket (whether a test is positive or negative) ColoGuard insists that if a test comes back positive, that a Colonoscopy should also be covered but that's up to insurance companies and not ColoGuard. IMO, ColoGuard provides no benefits to consumers other than the idea that they can get screened in lieu of a Colonoscopy--when in reality, ColoGuard exists to help insurance companies--because this cheap test takes the place of more serious colon cancer screening. It's yet another scam and I am sure the people behind it are laughing all the way to the bank despite causing serious harm to consumers.

This is a test both for 'occult' blood [which can be caused by things other than polyps/cancer] and tumor DNA. BUT the result is only reported as positive/negative, and they do not provide the result to the patient either- it goes by snail mail to the doctor. I wasted $600 out-of-pocket for a result which gives no information about whether tumor DNA was detected.
