Screening for multiple cancers is now possible with Galleri®

Alignment Health Plan partnered with GRAIL to offer its Medicare Advantage members access to the Galleri multi-cancer early detection test for a $75 copay. Through a simple blood draw, Galleri screens for a signal shared by more than 50 types of cancer.1 Eligible Alignment Health Plan members can request one test every two years.*

The Galleri test does not detect a signal for all cancers and not all cancers can be detected in the blood. Galleri should be used in addition to healthcare provider recommended screening tests.

Proactive health information

If a signal is found, results predict the tissue type or organ associated with the cancer signal to help your healthcare provider guide next steps.1

The Galleri test looks for a signal associated with active cancer and does not predict your future genetic risk for cancer. Diagnostic testing is needed to confirm cancer. False positive and false negative results do occur.

Eligible members can receive one Galleri test every two years with a $75 copay.

If you choose to complete the blood draw at another lab, including your primary healthcare provider’s office, you will be responsible for the blood draw fee.

No, eligible members must request the test through Recuro Health, an independent telemedicine healthcare provider, via the test request process through this link Galleri.com/partner/alignment.

When you request the test, you are given the option to enter your primary healthcare provider’s contact information; if you provide this, your test result will be automatically shared with your primary healthcare provider if a cancer signal is detected. If no cancer signal is detected, you can share the results with your provider, but GRAIL will not automatically send it.

Family history is only one of many risk factors associated with cancer development. Other risk factors include eating habits, lifestyle, living or working environments, genetics, and many others.

When you submit your test request, you may ask for a pre-test consultation with a Recuro Health telemedicine provider to discuss whether the test is right for you. This optional consultation is included in the benefit.

The Galleri test is recommended for use in adults with an elevated risk for cancer, such as those age 50 or older. The test does not detect all cancers and should be used in addition to routine cancer screening tests recommended by a healthcare provider. The Galleri test is intended to detect cancer signals and predict where in the body the cancer signal is located. Use of the test is not recommended in individuals who are pregnant, 21 years old or younger, or undergoing active cancer treatment.

Results should be interpreted by a healthcare provider in the context of medical history, clinical signs, and symptoms. A test result of No Cancer Signal Detected does not rule out cancer. A test result of Cancer Signal Detected requires confirmatory diagnostic evaluation by medically established procedures (e.g., imaging) to confirm cancer.

If cancer is not confirmed with further testing, it could mean that cancer is not present or testing was insufficient to detect cancer, including due to the cancer being located in a different part of the body. False positive (a cancer signal detected when cancer is not present) and false negative (a cancer signal not detected when cancer is present) test results do occur. Rx only.

The GRAIL clinical laboratory is certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA) and accredited by the College of American Pathologists. The Galleri test was developed — and its performance characteristics were determined — by GRAIL. The Galleri test has not been cleared or approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The GRAIL clinical laboratory is regulated under CLIA to perform high-complexity testing. The Galleri test is intended for clinical purposes
