In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness this upcoming October, Bergen New Bridge Medical Center is offering expanded access to screenings for essential screenings.
The Paramus facility is offering no-cost mammography to both uninsured and underinsured patients the whole month for its “October on Us” campaign.
Bergen New Bridge offers comprehensive breast imaging and diagnostic services, including a state-of-the-art 3D Digital Mammography Unit, which offers more accurate detection and early diagnosis. This new smarter 3D technology provides a noticeably more comfortable experience. The hospital also provides breast ultrasounds and minimally invasive biopsy procedures using ultrasound or stereotactic guidance.
Bergen New Bridge CEO Deborah Visconi stated the purpose.
“It is no secret that early detection can save lives, especially in the case of breast cancer,” she said. “Our mission as a safety net hospital is to make sure that those who are most vulnerable and those in underserved communities get access to essential preventative care like mammography.”
The Medical Center encourages everyone to ask their doctor to place an order for their imaging exam before arrival. If an order has already been issued, it should be brought to the appointment.
