The Women’s Health Connection (WHC) program administered by Access to Healthcare Network provides breast and cervical cancer screenings and diagnostic services to low-income women who are uninsured or underinsured (cannot afford the cost of care). Thanks to the generosity of WHC providers, Nevada women who meet certain qualifications may be eligible to receive FREE cervical and breast cancer screenings at no charge.

Women's Health Connection covered breast services:
  • Clinical breast exams: An exam of the breast done by a doctor to find lumps and changes in the skin.


  • Mammogram: An x-ray picture of the breast. Mammograms are the best way to detect cancer early before it causes symptoms.


  • Diagnostic Mammogram & Ultrasound after an abnormal screening result: A diagnostic mammogram may include more x-rays than the original mammogram. An Ultrasound can be used to look at a specific area of the breast.


  • Care Coordination Services: After any abnormal findings, a Women’s Health Connection care coordinator will help you navigate through your care until you obtain your diagnosis.

Nevada among last states to add rapid tests to virus tally
Nevada this week became one of the last states to publicly report rapid antigen tests as part of its coronavirus tallies — a move that experts said could provide a fuller picture of the pandemic but also upend metrics used to gauge how the virus is spreading.
The change leaves Maryland as the lone U.S. state that doesn't incorporate rapid tests in its online dashboard or include them in virus statistics, as the U.S. Centers for Disease Control recommends, according to an Associated Press review of dashboards and policies for all 50 states.
What Doctors Wish Patients Knew About a Prediabetes Diagnosis
After receiving a prediabetes diagnosis, it is normal for patients to experience a wide range of emotions—from shock and fear to disbelief. While a prediabetes diagnosis does not automatically mean a patient will develop type 2 diabetes, it is important to take seriously. That’s because prediabetes is real and common, but it can potentially be reversible if you take the right steps. Since prediabetes can be confusing, one physician took time to clear things up.
