    The following are organizations in Acadiana that provide breast screenings to the uninsured and underinsured in our community:

    Louisiana Breast and Cervical Health Program (LBCHP)

    The goal of the LBCHP is to prevent unnecessary disease, disability, or premature death due to cancer of the breast and cervix in women who live in Louisiana.  To accomplish this, LBCHP provides quality, no-cost breast exams, mammograms, and pap smears to women who qualify.

    Women must meet the following guidelines in order to be enrolled in the LBCHP:

    1. Must be between the ages of 40 - 64.
    2. Must have no insurance or be underinsured.
    3. Must meet income eligibility guidelines.
