  1. MODULAR MAMMOGRAPHY PROGRAM (MMP) Taking Mammography Screening to Rural Arkansas Kimberly S. Enoch, BS Project Coordinator UAMS/ACRC Modular Mammography Program Arkansas Cancer Community Network

  2. LEARNING OBJECTIVES • Eliminate Disparities by Bridging Gaps • Utilize a MMP for Screening Services in Rural and Underserved Arkansas • Initiate Successful Partnerships between an Academic Institution and Local/State Community Organizations to Implement Effective and Sustainable Models

  3. BREAST CANCER INCIDENCE • 1 out of 7 women • 1,830 cases estimated for 2007 Early Detection = Key To Survival & Best Treatment Options ACS Cancer Facts & Figures 2007

  4. BREAST CANCER MORTALITY • 410 cases in 2007 Early Detection = Key To Survival & Best Treatment Options ACS Cancer Facts & Figures 2007

  5. MAMMOGRAPHY SCREENING • X-ray of Supposedly Healthy Breasts • Women Age 40 and Older • Two Views (Breast Compressions) of Each Breast < 1/3 of Arkansas Women

  6. ANNUAL MAMMOGRAMS RECOMMENDED 40 & OLDER • Earlier Stage • 5 Year Survival Rate is 97% • Average Cost of Breast Cancer: • Early Stage $12,000 • Late Stage $143,000 American Cancer Society Guidelines American Medical Association American College of Radiology American College of Ob& Gyn

  7. FDA-APPROVED MAMMOGRAPHY FACILITIES •Recent trend: • National decline by 6.0% {2001-04} • # ♀ needing screening GAO Report: Mammography – Current Nationwide Capacity: July 2006

  8. ARKANSAS STATISTICS CDC’s National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention & Health Promotion, 2003

  12. MOBILE COVERAGE Counties remaining outside mobile coverage:

  13. ARKANSAS AFFILIATE KOMEN PROVIDES FUNDING Mammography Screening for 23 Arkansas Counties that Lack Mammography Facilities.

  14. GOALS OF MMP • Provide Onsite Breast Cancer Screening & Education in 23 Underserved Counties • Provide Resources of Referrals for Abnormal Screenings • Work With AR DHHS to Ensure No Woman Goes Unscreened

  15. SOPHIE TRANSPORT VAN Shown is a transport van equipped with a hydraulic lift system.

  16. SOPHIE TRANSPORT VAN The hydraulic lift allows the SOPHIE to be transported directly into a screening facility.

  17. SOPHIE UNIT • Access to Wheelchair Ramp • Minimal 36” Door Frame

  35. NON-FOCUSED COUNTIES • 504 (21%) Women Screened in Conjunction with Local Community Organizations • Community Cancer Councils • Annual Awareness Expos Counties that have FDA-Approved Facilities

  36. MODULAR MAMMOGRAPY PROGRAM • Eliminates the Physical Barrier of Access • Can be a Resource for the Primary Care Setting • Serve as a Reminder to Physicians and Patients for Annual Mammograms

  37. CONCLUSION Screening at PCP offices: •Main source of health education •Most cost effective strategy • Critical position to advise & order Breen N. Am J Public Health 1994;84:62-7. Saywell RM. Am J Manag Care 2003;9:33-44. Sheinfeld GS. Am J Prev Med 2000;19:53-8.

  38. PROS • Ability to Provide Needed Service to Women in Rural Settings • Job Satisfaction from the Responses of Women that Appreciate the Service • Not an Ordinary Clinical Setting • Ability to see beautiful scenery across Arkansas
