Becoming a Provider
Who Qualifies to Become a Provider
Local health departments and health systems can serve as NC Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Program (NC BCCCP) providers. Health systems include federally qualified health centers, private practices and hospitals.
If you are interested in becoming a local NC BCCCP provider, please contact the NC BCCCP Program Manager.
Services a Provider Delivers
As an NC BCCCP provider, you can offer breast and cervical cancer screenings and diagnostic services at little or no cost for patients with low to moderate incomes.
If you diagnose a woman with breast or cervical cancer, she can apply for Breast and Cervical Cancer Medicaid (BCCM). Once approved, BCCM provides coverage for all covered medical care and treatments.
