Breast and Cervical Cancer Treatment Program

Oregon Health Plan (OHP) Treatment Coverage for People Who Need It

If your provider told you that you need treatment for breast cancer or cervical cancer, but you don't have health coverage, there is help. You may be eligible for full OHP benefits through the Breast and Cervical Cancer Treatment Program (BCCTP), regardless of immigration status.

• Any provider who screens for breast or cervical cancer can refer you to the program.
• Ask your provider about referring you. They will need to send a completed BCCTP application to OHP.
  
• OHP usually processes BCCTP applications by the next business day.
  
• OHP covers cancer treatment and reproductive health care.

Who Is Eligible?

People under age 65 who live in Oregon and:

• Need treatment for breast cancer or cervical cancer,
• Do not have minimum essential coverage for treatment,
• Do not qualify for any other Medicaid programs, and
• Have household income under 250 percent of the Federal Poverty Level.
