Mammogram after 74
With a prescription
How to get it
1
Ask a doctor or IPS whether a mammogram still makes sense for you.
2
If you get a prescription, book at a designated screening centre (CDD).
3
No family doctor? Use the GAP (811, option 3).
What to say
““I’m over 74. Should I keep having mammograms?”
The details
Who it’s for
The Quebec program stops inviting women at 74. After that, a doctor or IPS can still prescribe a mammogram based on your health and personal risk.
How often
Decided with your doctor or IPS.
Cost
Free at a designated screening centre (CDD) of the Quebec program, with your health card, if you are 35 or older and your last mammogram was at least 1 year ago (RAMQ rule). Ask when you book.
