Breast Cancer Screening Rates, Females

New York Finger Lakes Region and Western New York

Breast cancer screening rates are a bit lower for low income, Latina and rural populations according to self-reported data from the 2016 NYS BRFSS. Some of this disparity is likely driven by insurance coverage - screening rates are significantly higher for those covered by private insurance compared to Medicaid enrollees and the uninsured.
