Mobile Cancer Screening Act aims to expand access to essential cancer screenings in underserved areas.
The Mobile Cancer Screening Act seeks to address disparities in cancer screening access by authorizing grants for mobile cancer screening units. These units will serve rural and underserved communities, including those served by the Indian Health Service. The bill prioritizes applicants with the highest potential impact on patient mortality and screening gaps for high-risk individuals. Funds can be used for purchasing vehicles, acquiring imaging technology, and covering essential startup or operational costs.
