Early detection saves lives. The earlier breast cancer is detected, the easier it is to treat. Mammograms are screening tools. They detect cancer before symptoms start.
If you do not have coverage for a screening mammogram, you may be eligible for a free screening at the Mayo Mobile Mammography Unit. Wisconsin Well Women Program helps Wisconsin women ages 45–64 who have little or no health insurance get screened for breast and cervical cancers. Call 608-785-9872 to find out if you qualify for support.
Appointments are required. Call 608-392-6237 on weekdays from 8 a.m.–5 p.m. to answer a few screening questions and ask to be scheduled at the Juneteenth Mayo Mobile Mammogram Unit. Have your insurance or Wisconsin Well Women Program information available.
Screenings will be available to women who are 40 and over and have no breast issues or concerns, such as lumps, pain or discharge.
In addition to the screening, participants can visit with community organizations to learn about other community health resources.
A mammogram screening usually takes 15–30 minutes.
