**If interested in receiving a screening mammogram, please read the following:
While inside the building, you will be required to wear a face mask that covers your nose and mouth and to practice other prevention efforts like physical distancing, even if you are fully vaccinated.
- A doctor’s order is not needed for your screening mammogram, but we do ask that you designate a doctor who you’ve seen in the past year to receive your results. If you don't have a doctor, we can help you find one.
- If you have health insurance, it will be billed for this screening mammogram. Women without health insurance are welcome and encouraged to come for a screening mammogram; assistance will be provided to cover the cost.
