AdventHealth’s $30 May Mammogram Campaign brought in 1,068 residents for mammograms within AdventHealth’s Georgia market, 329 of which were part of the $30 promotion. The others were covered by insurance.
The individual hospital numbers:
— AdventHealth Gordon did 655 mammograms, 234 of which were part of the $30 promotion.
— AdventHealth Murray did 125 mammograms, 24 of which were part of the $30 promotion.
— AdventHealth Redmond did 288 mammograms, 71 of which were part of the $30 promotion.
Annual mammograms are the top-recommended screening for women because it allows the earliest possible detection of issues before symptoms are experienced. Breast cancer is the second-leading cause of cancer death in women, and one in eight women will receive a breast cancer diagnosis in her lifetime. Having an annual mammogram could be life-saving.
AdventHealth will conduct its annual Pink Porch Mammogram Campaign again in October for breast cancer awareness. For more information on how to schedule a mammogram appointment, please visit GetYourMammoGA.com.
