BREAST CANCER RESOURCES

There are a number of resources available for screenings. If your clinic does not offer breast cancer screenings you can refer your patients to one of the clinics that are contracted as Well Woman Health Check providers and they will be able to access services for free. If your clinic screens women for breast cancer but does not have resources for follow up testing if the results are abnormal these patients can also be referred to Well Woman Health Check contracted clinics.

Well Woman Health Check

The Well woman health check offers free breast and cervical cancer screenings to uninsured women and includes most of the diagnostic tests if the screenings are abnormal.

Current clinics that are contracted as Well Woman providers are Adelante, Valley Wise, Mountain Park, and Wesley. 

Breast Cancer Awareness month

October is breast cancer awareness month and most imaging facilities offer free screening for the uninsured. Usually you have to write “uninsured patient, give mammogram promo” in the order or call the facility to see what they specifically require.

Cancer

If a woman has biopsy confirmed cancer and received services through one of the Well Women Health Check contracted clinics they have services for case management, referral to treatment, transportation, etc.
