Take the first step & register for the Community Mammobus Programme breast screening today.

What is the Community Mammobus Programme?

NHG Health Mammobus® is Singapore’s first mobile digital mammogram screening centre accredited under Healthier SG screening programme. Community Mammobus Programme (CMP), a tripartite collaboration amongst Singapore Cancer Society, Breast Cancer Foundation and NHG Diagnostics provides additional funding to make mammogram screening on Mammobus® accessible for more ladies.

 

Mammograms are conducted by an experienced radiographer, with a patient service staff on board.  There will also be a BCF volunteer (or two) present to assist with queue management and identity verification.
