$50 MAMMOGRAMS AVAILABLE
AT CENTENNIAL HILLS HOSPITAL

Centennial Hills Hospital Medical Center, 6900 N. Durango Drive, is offering $50 mammograms during October, which is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

To take advantage of the offer, patients must have a physician's order.

Patients also should consider that radiologists may not have time to review the images, and results may be mailed to patients' physicians in many cases.

Payment for the mammogram is due at the time of the screening if it is not a covered benefit in an insurance plan.

The offer is good on weekdays and does not extend to women with breast implants or those with a pre-existing condition.

To make an appointment or for more information, call 369-7710.
