Schneck Medical Center wants to ensure that no woman in our community goes without regular pap smears and breast exams due to their inability to pay.
A free Breast and Cervical Cancer Screening will be held on Saturday, October 8, 8:00 to 10:00 a.m., Schneck Obstetrics & Gynecology, on the campus of Schneck Medical Center.
Please enter through the Emergency Department Entrance.
The event is designed to provide exams to women who may not already have access to these services and includes a clinical breast exam (not a mammogram) and a cervical exam with a pap test.
All exams will be performed by qualified nurse practitioners.
The free Pap test is being funded by a generous grant from the Schneck Foundation.
To be eligible for the free Breast and Cervical Cancer Screening, a woman must be at least 21 years old and have not had a breast or cervical exam during the last 2 years.
Per the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services regulations, individuals with Medicare, Medicaid, or similar replacement plans are not eligible for the free screenings held during this event.
Clinical Breast Exams and Cervical Screenings are a covered benefit under these plans, and may be performed or ordered by the patient’s physician of choice.
To schedule your screening, register online at SchneckMed.org/Events, or call the Cancer Center screening line at 812-522-0477.
Please provide your name and phone number and your message will be returned promptly.
A limited number of appointments are available, so please register early.
