Division of Public Health, Screening For Life

Screening For Life is a State of Delaware and federally-funded cancer screening program for Delaware residents. The program coordinates and funds breast, cervical, colorectal, and prostate cancer education, screening, diagnostics and follow up services for eligible men and women throughout the State. Generally, age determines which services an individual is eligible to receive.  The services that may be paid for include: breast exams, pelvic exams, pap smears, mammograms, clinical breast exams, education, diagnostic procedures, colorectal and prostate cancer screening procedures, and office visits related to these services.  Delawareans diagnosed with cancer while in the Screening for Life program may be eligible for cancer treatment services under Medicaid or the Delaware Cancer Treatment Program.
