  1. Poor Bowel Prep
  2. Problems with sufficiently sedating patient
  3. A blockage in the colon
In the event that a procedure is interrupted, ColonoscopyAssist will refund 20% of the cost of the interrupted procedure.
If a physician asks for the procedure to be repeated. The patient will be responsible for cost of the repeat procedure.
In many cases, a repeat colonoscopy might not be necessary. A barium enema Xray or a CT Virtal Colonoscopy might be sufficient.
