We are funded through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) through a grant for Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program BCCEDP) as authorized by Breast and Cervical Cancer Mortality Prevention Act of 1990 (PL 101-354).
The philosophy of this program is that all American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) women should be offered culturally sensitive teaching about breast and cervical care, and accessible and appropriate services. This program will focus on high-risk, low income AI/AN women between the ages of 18-64, to address lack of knowledge of caring for self and other obstacles to preventive care. With adequate teaching and services the morbidity and mortality of breast and cervical cancer for AI/AN women will decrease.

Effective January 1, 2005, the State of Oklahoma has provided Medicaid benefits to uninsured women under 65, who are identified through the National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP) and are in need of treatment of breast or cervical cancer (including pre-cancerous conditions and early stage cancer).
