Women Should Ignore New Mammogram Guideline, Ex-NIH Chief Says

Date:11/23/2009

ust abide by the law.

However, according to an annual survey by the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation and Health Research & Educational Trust, more than half (57 percent) of all employees receiving health-care coverage from an employer are in "self-funded" plans, and these plans are exempt from state laws.

Medicare, the federal health program for older and disabled Americans, covers annual mammograms starting at age 40, and, according to a statement from U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, that won't change. On Thursday, she urged women to "keep doing what you have been doing for years."
