Medical Screening Results of Our Patients
- Mammography Screening
- Colorectol Screening
We are pleased to share some encouraging news regarding our medical screening efforts for Mammography. Our recent data shows that an impressive 90% of female members of Union Health Service between the ages of 50 and 74 have completed a mammogram within the last two year.
This accomplishment is a significant milestone in our commitment to women’s health, and it reflects the dedication of both our healthcare providers and our valued members. Here is what this statistic means for you and the membership:
- Early Detection: Mammograms are a vital tool in the early detection of breast cancer. Completing a mammogram every two years greatly enhances the chances of detecting cancer at an early, more treatable stage.
- Improved Outcomes: By ensuring that a large percentage of women in this age group are screened regularly, we are contributing to better health outcomes and an increased likelihood of successful treatment in case breast cancer is detected.
- Membership Health: This statistic demonstrates our commitment to improving the overall health of our membership. It reflects the importance we place on preventive care and early intervention.
- Encouraging Preventive Health: We want to take this opportunity to encourage all eligible women to continue with regular mammography screenings as recommended.
If you are due for your mammogram or have questions about breast health, please do not hesitate to reach out to your healthcare providers.
Union Health Service would like to express our gratitude to our members for their proactive approach to preventive health and to our healthcare team for their dedication to promoting and providing accessible screening services.
If you have any questions or concerns related to mammography or any other aspect of your healthcare, please feel free to contact your provider. Your well-being is our priority, and we are here to support you in every way possible.
Thank you for being proactive about your health, and together, we can continue to make positive strides in the journey toward better health outcomes.
