CoxHealth postpones all screening mammograms for 30 days

In an effort to practice social distancing while also maintaining time sensitive clinical services, all screening mammograms at CoxHealth will be postponed starting March 19 for 30 days.

The change only involves screening mammograms. Non-screening breast exams such as diagnostic mammograms, follow-up appointments and biopsies, will continue as scheduled and ordered.

Patients who have a mammogram scheduled in the coming weeks will be contacted to cancel and reschedule.

This change involves all CoxHealth locations where mammograms are performed.

As response to the epidemic evolves, this approach may be adjusted or refined.
