There are two programs that the Health Department participates in that could offer assistance if you need a mammogram, the Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Program (BCCCP) and the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure NC Triad.

The Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Program (BCCCP) is a federal program North Carolina takes part in so that we can offer breast and cervical cancer screening, education and prevention at extremely low costs. One of our main goals is to allow women who do not qualify under other state and federal programs to be screened for breast and cervical cancers. Through the BCCCP Program, women are eligible for reduced/ no cost exams if they are: - Age 50-64 - Not covered by Medicaid or Medicare Part B - Have little or no insurance to cover breast and cervical screenings - Meet household income guidelines. Income guidelines can change every year.
Payment is determined by a sliding fee scale according to family size and family income. Other services may cost extra. Be sure to call ahead if you are interested in the program.

The Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure NC Triad is a grant funded program that the health department applies for each year. Through the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure NC Triad, women are eligible for mammograms at a reduced/ no cost exams if they are: - Age 35-64 - Not covered by Medicaid or Medicare Part B - Have little or no insurance to cover breast screenings - Meet household income guidelines.
