Mammography Financial Assistance

Financial assistance is available to help women obtain mammograms that cannot financially afford one. This assistance is available through two different grant programs in McLean County.

Susan G. Komen for the Cure, Memorial Affiliate

helps pay for breast diagnostic procedures for women who have no insurance, are underinsured or could not meet a high deductible without causing financial hardship. The grant does not limit participation due to age or income guidelines. For more information, please contact the Community Cancer Center at 309-451-8500.

The Illinois Breast and Cervical Cancer Program

(IBCCP) offers free mammograms, breast exams, pelvic exams and Pap tests to eligible women. Funded cooperatively by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Illinois Department of Public Health, the program was created to provide breast and cervical cancer screening and referrals to uninsured women.

The Illinois Breast and Cervical Cancer Program can help women 35-64. Women under 35 who are experiencing breast or cervical symptoms may also be eligible.

To enroll in the program, women should first call IDPH's Women's Health-Line at 1-888- 522-1282 or 1-877-811-0193. For residents of McLean County, you can also contact the Community Healthcare Clinic located in Normal, IL at 309-888-5531.
