women where they live and work. Women schedule their appointments
directly through Lourdes Central Scheduling Department.
Lourdes will bill the patient's insurance carrier
directly.
Individuals who are uninsured or underinsured may qualify for
the Cancer Services Program, making these life-saving tests
free to the individual. Call the Cancer
