📢 Early Detection Saves Lives: Lung Cancer Screening Matters

Americans who are eligible for lung cancer screening are 4x less likely to undergo screening for lung cancer than for breast or colorectal cancer—yet lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related death in the U.S. 

Lisa Paul, MD, Regional Director of the Lung Cancer Screening Program at WMCHealth, is on a mission to change that.

💡 Her message: "Despite advances in treatment, lung cancer still has a high mortality rate. The key is catching it early. The earlier we detect it, the better your chances of survival."

If you are 50-80 years old, currently smoke, quit within the past 15 years, or have a 20 pack-year or more smoking history, your insurance plan might cover lung cancer screening. 

📅 Don’t wait. Book your screening now. Call 833-WMC-LUNG. And share this with someone who needs to know!
