Wellness on Tour Mobile Health Bus
Now offering digital mammography
Annual screening mammograms are recommended for women age 40 and older. Mammograms are the best tool for detecting breast cancer in its earliest, most treatable stage. Nearly 3,000 women annually complete a mammogram on the bus. Many have never had a mammogram or have gone many years between screenings.
The bus serves 16 rural Southwest Missouri communities.
Since 2001, the bus has logged more than 100,000 miles delivering on-site services to businesses and rural communities. Recognizing the need for all-digital mammography, Mercy replaced its mobile health bus in 2012. The new bus allows us to serve more women, including those whose last mammogram was digital and those with breast implants.
Wellness on Tour Bus Services include:
The Wellness on Tour bus is an outreach of the Mercy Breast Center, staffed by highly qualified Mercy health professionals.
We know your time is valuable. Each test we offer takes approximately 15 minutes to complete. We file insurance for a number of tests that are typically covered by health insurance.
