Frequently Asked Questions

Our buses have been professionally converted to rolling medical offices complete with reception, waiting area, changing rooms and a mammography suite with a Hologic 3D mammogram system. You can get an annual screening mammogram close to where you live or work by using one of these mobile mammogram buses. Everything is done on the bus — and you’re ensured privacy, comfort, and easy access to the same technology and trained technicians as our hospitals and imaging centers.

AdventHealth Mobile Mammography bills most major insurance directly as a preventive, or well-woman, visit that is typically covered at 100% if you meet the age and time frame eligibility. For the uninsured, a self-pay option is available for the 3D mammogram.

AdventHealth Mobile Mammography has certified mammographers with more than 20 years of experience.

Women 40 and older do not need a prescription or referral. Women ages 35-39 are required to have a prescription from your doctor.

Any female that is 40 or older (women ages 35-39, you may receive a screening if you have a prescription from your doctor) and has not received a screening mammogram within the past year. This will be considered your annual well women screening mammogram.

Appointments can take as little as 10 minutes if you bring your completed pre-registration forms.

Please bring your insurance card and pre-registration forms. If you are 35-39 years of age, bring the required prescription from your doctor. We provide wipes and deodorant on the bus, but you may want to bring your own.

A two-piece outfit is recommended for your convenience. Wipes and spray deodorant are provided on the bus, or you may bring your own.

If you meet the eligibility requirements, you can receive a mammogram screening. These images will be considered your baseline screening, and you can use them to compare future mammograms.

It’s important to tell the technologist if you have implants before your mammogram is started. To help the doctor see as much breast tissue as possible, women with implants will have extra pictures done, as well as the four standard pictures taken during a screening mammogram. Rarely, the mammogram process can rupture an implant, which is another important reason to make sure we know you have implants. You do not need to remove nipple rings.

A letter with your results will be sent automatically to you at the address you provide within 30 days. A copy of your report will also be mailed to your doctor’s office that you provide during registration within 30 days.

For most women, the results of a mammogram will be good news. The mammogram will show no sign of breast cancer. If your mammogram does show something abnormal, you will need follow-up tests to check whether or not the finding is breast cancer. Most abnormal findings on a mammogram are not breast cancer. AdventHealth will assist with arranging follow-up care, if needed.
