October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Unfortunately, access to healthcare plays a significant role in a person's ability to receive early detection and treatment for breast cancer. According to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, 49% of uninsured women delayed or went without care due to cost. At PHS, we are committed to closing this healthcare access gap and promoting health equity. For over 20 years, our health insurance enrollment program has been helping New Yorkers obtain free or low-cost coverage. Our Health Insurance Navigators and Facilitated Enrollers provide personalized assistance to help you find the best plan for your needs. Together, we can create a more equitable healthcare system.
