Free Cancer and Health Screening for Eligible Women

The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) has openings for program-eligible women to receive free cancer and health screenings. To make a referral, call toll free 844-446-8727 or visit MDHHS – Cancer (michigan.gov) to find the Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Navigation Program (BC3NP) and the WISEWOMAN Program.

  • The BC3NP provides free breast and cervical cancer screening services, statewide to low-income women. This may include follow-up care, if needed, if a screening abnormality is identified.  The BC3NP does not pay for cancer treatment. However, women diagnosed with breast or cervical cancer may be eligible for a special Medicaid program that provides cancer treatment.
  • The WISEWOMAN Program, available in select areas of the state, helps participants understand their chronic disease risk factors and make healthy lifestyle choices. Every participant receives a free health screening and an opportunity to discuss their health status with a health professional. In addition, participants can choose to participate in a number of free or reduced cost support services.

  • Between the ages of 40-64 for WISEWOMAN.
  • Uninsured or underinsured (insurance pays for part of services).
