Officials say early detection is key in the fight against breast cancer, so access to screenings is important.

Officials say mammography screenings are primarily for women age 40 and older; however, screenings will be provided to those younger than 40 that have a screening referral from a provider.

NVHC’s says screenings are provided to all women regardless of economic status.

They also say they accept most major insurance plans, Medicaid and Medicare and offer a sliding fee scale for those who are uninsured.
