Mammography – The gold standard
Breast cancer is the most common cancer for American women, except for skin cancers, and women have a one in eight chance of developing it in their lifetime1. While breast cancer deaths have decreased, Black women are 41%2 more likely to die from breast cancer than white women. But when detected early, the five-year survival rate for localized breast cancer is 99%3.
Encourage your employees to schedule their $0 copay screening mammogram – Please share our Early Detection Matters flyer via print, email, or intranet.
