The Cancer Services Program is funded by New York State and the federal government. The
program provides breast, cervical, and
colorectal screenings FREE to women aged 40 years and older, and men ages 50 years and older who are uninsured or underinsured and who are at or below 250% of the federal poverty level,
currently:

• $2,257/month or below for a family of 1
• $3,086/month or below for a family of 2

Some women under 40 years of age are also
eligible for mammograms if they have a family
history of breast cancer or an abnormal breast
finding.

In addition to cancer screening services, the
program provides case management services to assist individuals who require diagnostic
follow-up after their initial screenings.

Case Management services help with:

• Navigating the health care system
• Obtaining child care services
• Obtaining translation services
• Overcoming barriers

If an individual is diagnosed with breast,
cervical or colorectal cancer through the
program, it is likely that they will be eligible for a special Medicaid insurance while they are
receiving cancer treatment.
