If detected early, nearly all breast and cervical cancers can be treated successfully (Ohio Cancer Facts and Figures 2010).   Not all Ohio women, however, can afford the screening and diagnostic services that help find breast and cervical cancers in time to assure the best outcome. 

Ohio’s Breast and Cervical Cancer Project (BCCP) is a program that provides high quality breast and cervical cancer screening, diagnostic testing and case management services at no cost to eligible women in Ohio. 

BCCP is operated by 11 Regional Enrollment Agencies (REAs) that serve multiple counties.  Women do not have to travel to an REA to enroll in BCCP.  Enrollment typically takes place over the phone or by mail. 

BCCP’s clinical services are available through a large network of medical providers throughout the State of Ohio.  Once a woman is enrolled in BCCP, she will be scheduled for services by staff at her REA, with clinical providers in her area.  BCCP is committed to serving Ohio women in a convenient, accessible, respectful and culturally competent manner.
