The Title XV/Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Program (BCCCP) is part of a nation-wide effort to decrease breast and cervical cancer mortality by providing breast and cervical cancer screening services to women, under or uninsured, age 40 and older with low to moderate incomes. Screening services are available to women living in Ingham, Clinton , Gratiot, Ionia, and Jackson counties.   (Additionally, ICHD is the local coordinating agency for Oakland , Washtenaw and Livingston counties.)    Women who meet the eligibility/screening guidelines may receive a pelvic exam, Pap test, clinical breast exam, mammogram and health education.   Further diagnostic testing and treatment services are available to women who are found to have an abnormality through their screening.   Local physicians and hospitals have entered into a partnership with the Ingham County Health Department to ensure that women receive appropriate and timely follow-up care.

BCCCP screening services are provided at the Ingham County Health Department's Women's Health Clinic, satellite clinics, Cristo Rey Clinic, and Care Free Medical Clinics in Ingham County in addition to multiple sites in the other counties.
