You Qualify for a Low-Dose CT Lung Scan.
As per U.S. Preventive Services Task Force or Medicare criteria.
You might be at risk for lung cancer and we stress the importance of further screening. A Low-Dose CT Lung could save your life so please contact your family doctor without delay. Talk to your doctor and decide whether you should schedule a CT Lung Scan here at the June E. Nylen Cancer Center.
Medicare covers screening for individuals 50-77 who are asymptomatic and have a 20 pack-year history of smoking AND are a current smoker, or have quit within the last 15 years. Many private health insurance plans also cover lung cancer screening but eligibility criteria may vary based on the type of plan you. We also offer a self-pay option at our Cancer Center.
Again, we recommend contacting your family physician to discuss - download the form below to take with you to your appointment.
