Baptist Health South Florida urges the importance of getting screened for the early detection of breast cancer.
The organization is reducing the cost of digital mammograms by up to 75 percent through Oct. 31 for uninsured patients only in recognition of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Screening mammograms are $50 and diagnostic mammograms are $100.
A doctor’s prescription is required and all digital mammograms are reviewed and interpreted by board-certified radiologists. Baptist Health South Florida performed more than 66,000 mammograms in 2012.
