LRGHealthcare proudly participates in the Let No Woman Be Overlooked (BCCP) program, and also offers the Mammography and Screening Bridge programs.
What are the Let No women be Overlooked (BCCP), Mammography and Screening Bridge Programs?
 The Let No Woman Be Overlooked Breast and Cervical Cancer Program provides free breast and cervical cancer screenings to New Hampshire women who meet certain requirements.
The Mammography Bridge program is an extension of the HealthLink program, this program helps bridge the gap for women who may not qualify for HealthLink or the BCCP program, but still have financial barriers to receiving a regular screening mammogram. Some women qualifying for this new program may have health insurance, but may have a very high deductible or no mammography screening coverage in their plan. Or, they may not have insurance, but not meet the financial guidelines for the HealthLink program.

The Mammography Bridge* program requires a brief financial screening process. If a woman qualifies, she will be given a voucher for a screening digital mammogram at one of two locations: Lakes Region General Hospital and Franklin Regional Hospital.
* For a limited time, thanks to the NBCF’s grant, The Mammography Bridge Program will be able to offer digital mammography and breast ultrasound services free-of-charge to qualifying women. (Once the grant funding runs out, mammography services will once again be available at a minimal fee).
For more information about either program, please contact our Breast Health Educator at vwitkin@lrgh.org or call her at 527-2940.
The Screening Bridge program offers patients who qualify based on financial guidelines receive the screenings they need at a minimal cost.
