Mobile Mammogram Screenings Sept 27 & 28

Your insurance may require a referral, doctors order or prior authorization.

If you are under 40, you must meet the following criteria:

• Must have a doctor’s order (No self-referrals)
• If under 30, the doctor’s order must specify why you are high risk (strong family history, BRCA mutation, etc.)
• Self-pay required if insurance will not cover exams under 40

Insurances
Alinea accepts a variety of insurance policies (HMO, PPO, etc.) and will run it at the time of your appointment. However, many insurance providers require a referral and/or prior authorization. Specifically, we know that Kaiser, L.A. Care, and HealthNet will require a referral. There may be others so be sure to check your policy.

We encourage all women who are interested, to check with their insurance company on what is covered and if they require a referral or prior authorization, reach out to your primary care doctor to get that taken care of prior to the screening event. 

Bring your ID, insurance card, and any referral or other paperwork from your primary care doctor that is related to this screening.

Please note: Catalina Island Health is the host of this event, but the insurance used must be accepted by Alinea and may or may not align with what is or isn’t accepted at our clinic.

No Insurance?
If you do not have insurance, you may be eligible to receive a free screening courtesy of California’s Cancer Detection Program “Every Woman Counts” through the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS)

To qualify for the FREE service, you must:
• Be 40 years of age or older
• Have low household income
• No insurance

If you do not have insurance and do not qualify for a free screening, you can self-pay.
