Maine Breast and Cervical Health Program

The Maine Breast and Cervical Health Program is a FREE program available to women aged 40 years or older who meet eligibility requirements. 

The program covers:
  • Breast Exams
  • Pap Tests
  • Pelvic Exams
  • Mammograms
  • Some limited diagnostic or follow-up services

KVHC participates in the Maine Breast and Cervical Health Program, so you can receive your exams and Pap tests at your local health center! The only service you would need to be referred outside of KVHC for would be your mammogram.

Early detection of cancer can be life-saving. In the US, the death rate of female breast cancer has been declining since 1989 thanks to improvements in early detection and treatment. Don’t wait – get checked today!
