FREE Women’s
Health Exams &
Mammograms available locally!
No insurance? Not covered?
No woman should have
to neglect her health due to lack of, or inadequate insurance coverage.
To provide Lincoln County women the annual
medical tests they need, Lincoln Hospital
and North Basin Medical Clinics have teamed up with the
Eastern Washington Breast
and Cervical Health Program to offer
free mammograms, breast exams and pap testing
to those with little or no insurance coverage.
This state-funded program not only provides potentially
life-saving exams, but referral
assistance and treatment for follow-up procedures if something suspicious is
found. And
because it’s offered at Lincoln Hospital and all three clinics (Wilbur, Reardan
& Davenport),
women can get timely, local service instead of making another trip to Spokane.
For information or to apply, call the
Davenport Clinic at (509) 725-7501.

What if I don’t qualify?
For those who may not qualify for the Breast and Cervical Health
Program, Lincoln
Hospital does offer free mammograms and clinical breast exams to needy women
through its new “Project Pink”.
“Project Pink” is funded by private donations from local people
who want to stamp out breast cancer here in Lincoln County.
Lincoln Hospital is proud to be able to offer “Project Pink” to women
who have no other way to get basic breast health services.
