SHARING IS CARING
The National Breast Cancer Foundation's National Mammography Program provides free mammograms and diagnostics services for women in need.
From the NBCF Website
To support our mission, we manage a network of partner medical facilities across the United States. Through this network we provide grants for free breast screening and diagnostic services to those in need (low income/uninsured/underinsured). These facilities have the systems and partnerships in place to ensure access to treatment for patients who are diagnosed.
The types of services covered include:
Screening mammograms
Diagnostic mammograms
Tomosynthesis (3D mammograms)
CAD (computer-aided detection)
Clinical breast exams
Ultrasounds
Biopsies (limited)
