HRMC offering treats, prizes for scheduling mammograms

Posted

HURON — In celebration of moms, Huron Regional Medical Center is offering treats and a chance to win to women who call to schedule a mammogram by May 14.

Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death in women, second to lung cancer. Early detection increases the chance of survival. Many women delayed getting a mammogram due to the pandemic – so, now is the time to schedule yours.

To encourage women to learn their risk for breast cancer, HRMC is offering a choice of treats to women who call to schedule a screening.  Women who make the call by May 14, will be offered their choice of a DQ mini Blizzard or a coffee coupon. The actual mammogram appointment can occur between May 1 and October 31, 2021.

Anyone who schedules a mammogram during the month of May will also be entered for a chance to win six seasonal floral bouquet deliveries. Women who are scheduling their first mammogram or who refer a friend will be entered for a chance to win a pampering package including a manicure, pedicure and massage.

The HRMC Foundation We’ve Got You Covered fund, HRMC provides FREE mammograms to women in need who are age 40-64 or are under age 40 and at higher risk for cancer, who have not had a mammogram in the last year, and who do not have insurance/insurance does not cover
HRMC’s digital mammography system is fast, yet ultra-sensitive, and generally only takes approximately 15-20 minutes to complete.
