Cancer
Get help scheduling breast and cervical screenings across Delaware.
The services once offered through the Women’s Mobile Health Screening Unit are now coordinated through the Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition’s Women’s Health Screening Program. Patient navigators can connect you with screening locations, help remove common barriers, and point you toward coverage options if you need them.
Current Screening Support
This legacy route now points to Delaware’s current statewide screening support program.
Today, the Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition helps patients move from the old mobile-unit model to screening appointments at freestanding mammography and screening sites across the state. The focus is practical access: getting your screening scheduled, answering questions ahead of time, and helping you follow through on the appointment.
If you need a routine mammogram or cervical screening and are not sure where to begin, a bilingual patient navigator can help you take the next step.
Get Started With a Patient Navigator
Call DBCC’s Women’s Health Screening Program for scheduling help, transportation coordination, or interpretation support.
How This Program Helps
Support is available before, during, and after you schedule a screening.
The goal is to make screening easier to start and easier to complete, especially if transportation, language, cost, or care coordination has gotten in the way before.
- Screening scheduling and coordination at partner sites across Delaware
- Transportation help for screening-related appointments when it is needed
- Interpretation in English, Spanish, and Haitian Creole
- Help finding a primary care provider or understanding insurance barriers
Need Help Paying for Screening?
If you are uninsured or underinsured, Delaware’s Screening for Life program may help cover breast and cervical screening services. The program can also help with health education and coordinating associated care.
- Office visits
- Mammograms and clinical breast exams
- Pap tests
- Health education
- Help coordinating associated care
Know What to Ask For
When you call, let the patient navigator know whether you need help with a mammogram, cervical screening, transportation, interpretation, or finding a provider. The program is built to help you move from “I’m overdue” to “I have an appointment.”
If you already know cost is the barrier, ask about Screening for Life at the same time so you can work through both steps together.
