DHHS has provided funding for a Breast and Cervical Cancer Screening Program since 1985.  In 1990, the US Congress passed the Breast and Cervical Cancer Mortality Prevention Act that mandated and provided funding for the National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program. 

NH has combined its state resources with federal funding since 1993, greatly expanding NH's ability to provide a statewide Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Program.  The program offers eligible participants access to the following services:

• Women's Health Exam
• Mammography
• Pap Smear
• Gynecology Exam

The mission of NH's Let No Woman Be Overlooked Breast and Cervical Cancer Program is to plan, promote and implement programs of education and screening to reduce the mortality rates, through early detection, of breast and cervical cancer among NH women.  This mission is carried out statewide through a comprehensive program which addresses the seven component areas of:

• screening,
• public education,
• coalition building,
• quality assurance,
• case management,
• professional education, and
• surveillance.

The Let No Woman Be Overlooked program provides free breast and cervical cancer screenings to women who meet certain eligibility requirements. The screenings are offered at many health care sites including NH hospitals and physician offices.
