CHI Memorial Mobile Health Coach To Visit Chattanooga State Campus

  • Thursday, October 20, 2016

CHI Memorial’s mobile health coach will provide mammography screenings at Chattanooga State Community College in partnership with Bold Godly Women Bringing God's Word Society on Saturday from 9 a.m.–1 p.m. 

All women should have one screening mammogram between the ages of 35-40. After age 40, a screening mammogram is recommended every year.  Any woman who meets these age guidelines and has not had a mammogram in the past 12 months may participate, with or without insurance. 

For those with insurance, participants must bring their insurance card and a photo ID, such as a driver’s license. Insurance will be filed for them.  For those without insurance, they may qualify for financial assistance.  The MaryEllen Locher Breast Center receives grants and partners with Tennessee Breast and Cervical Screening Program to provide eligible uninsured and under-insured women with breast and cervical screenings.  If an abnormality is discovered, the diagnostic work up is covered. 

Women need to know their doctor’s first and last name. 

To schedule a screening, call 495-4040 or 866-591-2254. 

Chattanooga State Community College is at 4501 Amnicola Hwy.
