How Sun Health is Making a Difference This Breast Cancer Awareness Month

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time dedicated to educating people about the importance of early detection, honoring survivors, and supporting ongoing research. At Sun Health, we’re committed to doing our part in raising awareness and providing affordable access to essential healthcare services during this critical month—and beyond.

Our Services and Discounts for Breast Cancer Screenings

We believe everyone should have access to affordable healthcare, especially when it comes to breast cancer screenings and treatments. During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Sun Health is offering a range of services and resources to support early detection and treatment. These services include:

• Discounted Mammograms: Early detection is one of the best defenses against breast cancer. Sun Health members can access discounted rates for mammograms at participating providers, ensuring more women can afford this life-saving screening.
• Affordable Lab Work & Diagnostic Testing: Many insurance plans don’t cover the full range of diagnostic tests needed for breast cancer detection and treatment. Sun Health offers members the ability to get necessary labs done at a fraction of the cost. This includes blood tests, biopsies, and other important diagnostic tools that help in monitoring breast health.
• Telemedicine for Breast Health Questions: Sometimes, having a doctor readily available to discuss any concerns or symptoms can make all the difference. Our telemedicine services allow members to discuss breast health concerns from the comfort of their home, and get recommendations from a professional. Sun Health members can take advantage of these services at no extra cost, giving them peace of mind and easy access to expert advice.

Supporting Members Through Partnerships

At Sun Health, we understand that healthcare is a community effort, which is why we’ve partnered with a network of trusted providers and organizations to support breast cancer awareness. One of our key partners is GoodRx, which helps our members access lower prescription prices.

Additionally, we’re partnered with local diagnostic centers to provide streamlined access to breast cancer screenings, offering appointments that can be booked quickly and efficiently. Our goal is to eliminate the barriers that often prevent individuals from receiving timely care, whether it’s high costs or long wait times.

How Sun Health Members Are Involved

Our community of members is at the heart of everything we do, and many of them have their own powerful stories of resilience. This month, we’re sharing their stories to inspire others. For example, one of our members used Sun Health to access affordable labs that were essential in her breast cancer treatment. Thanks to the support of Sun Health, she was able to receive the care she needed at a fraction of the cost, and today, she’s cancer-free.

These testimonials highlight the impact that affordable, accessible care can have on a person's health journey. By sharing these stories, we hope to encourage others to prioritize their health and seek out the resources available to them.

How You Can Make a Difference

Breast Cancer Awareness Month is also about taking action. Whether you’re a Sun Health member or part of the broader community, there are many ways to get involved:

• Schedule a Screening: If you haven’t had your mammogram or breast health check-up this year, now is the time to schedule it. Early detection saves lives, and Sun Health is here to help make those appointments more affordable and easier to access.
• Spread the Word: Share information about breast cancer screenings, prevention tips, and the importance of early detection on social media. Use your voice to help educate others and raise awareness.
• Support a Loved One: If someone in your life is going through breast cancer treatment, offer your support. Whether it’s helping them access care through Sun Health’s discounted services or simply being there for emotional support, your involvement can make a big difference.

This October, we’re proud to play a role in raising awareness, offering affordable services, and supporting our members who are fighting or have survived breast cancer.
