Mount Sinai mammography bus offers free breast cancer screenings to underserved communities
Mount Sinai Health System is taking its mobile mammography bus across the city to bring breast cancer screenings to women throughout New York City.
NEW YORK - Mount Sinai Health System is taking its mobile mammography bus into every borough every month to help bring health services to under-served communities. The service takes most insurance and for those who are uninsured, mammograms can often be gotten for free.
The mobile service has state-of-the-art 3D imaging and is celebrating its first anniversary.
“We’ve done more than 2,200 mammograms and diagnosed 9 breast cancers,”
And just because you don’t have a family history of breast cancer doesn’t mean you won’t get it or that you shouldn’t get a mammogram.
