The players
Oklahoma Project Woman
A statewide organization that provides vouchers for breast health services to uninsured women.
The details
Oklahoma Project Woman operates a network of over 270 clinical partners and 60 imaging and hospital facilities to facilitate care. Uninsured individuals receive vouchers that cover the costs of diagnostic tests, imaging, and potential surgical interventions like mastectomies. This statewide infrastructure ensures that lack of health coverage does not prevent residents from accessing standard cancer screening and treatment protocols.
Timeline
The program launched as Tulsa Project Woman in 1998.
The organization issued over 5,000 vouchers throughout 2025.
Health Landscape
Oklahoma Project Woman functions alongside federal and state screening mandates to provide essential diagnostic access. It addresses the critical gap for uninsured populations to ensure they receive standard-of-care imaging and follow-up.
Uninsured residents of Oklahoma who need breast health services should contact the organization to determine their eligibility for vouchers. Consult your primary care physician to discuss if a screening mammogram is appropriate for your age and personal health history.
The takeaway
Early detection is the most effective tool in managing breast cancer outcomes. If you are uninsured, talk to your doctor about your screening schedule and inquire if local voucher programs can help cover the cost.
