AmeriHealth Caritas Ohio, UC Health offer mobile mammograms, HPV kits for screenings.

AmeriHealth Caritas Ohio, UC Health offer mobile mammograms, HPV kits for screenings. by Kevin Delaney, WKRC Wed, September 9, 2026 at 5:09 PM Updated Thu, September 10, 2026 at 9:15 AM Women in the community had a chance to get potentially life-saving cancer screenings today as several organizations teamed up to expand access to preventive care. (WKRC) CINCINNATI (WKRC) - Women in the community had a chance to get potentially life-saving cancer screenings today as several organizations teamed up to expand access to preventive care. AmeriHealth Caritas Ohio partnered with UC Health to provide screenings on a mobile mammography unit. Health officials also provided HPV self-collection kits so people can be screened for cervical cancer. Women in the community had a chance to get potentially life-saving cancer screenings today as several organizations teamed up to expand access to preventive care. (WKRC, Provided) "Cervical cancer is actually one of the cancers that's wholly preventable, and one of ways by which to prevent it is actually to screen for it," said Dr. Leeya Pinder, a gynecologic oncologist at UC Health. "So, when we screen early, we're able to detect pre-cancer cells or cells that are abnormal before they get to cancer." UC Health offers 3D imaging and says all women over 40 should have an annual mammogram. "It's the single most important screening that women can get in the age of 35 in order to detect breast cancer at an early stage," said Maria Pearson, manager of the Mobile Mammography Program at UC Health. Westwood apartment fire displaces man; pets rescued Jill Gorley, a health educator for AmeriHealth Caritas Ohio, emphasized the importance of getting screened. "Early detection is early treatment," Gorley said. "And that's what we want for our folks coming out today to be screened. To be educated and informed about their health." The mobile mammography unit travels to different communities to offer screenings. To schedule an appointment, contact UC Health Mammography Services or call (513)-584-7465.

US moves to shut a Kentucky organ donation group, citing safety failures.

US moves to shut a Kentucky organ donation group, citing safety failures. FILE - Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr., listens during a Cabinet meeting at the White House, May 27, 2026, in Washington. (AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin, File) Posted 11:21 AM, Aug 06, 2026 The Trump administration said Wednesday it will shut down a Kentucky organ donation group accused of continuing plans for organ retrieval from some patients who unexpectedly showed signs of life. While those surgeries were canceled, the cases made headlines several years ago, prompting a spike in people around the country revoking their organ donor registrations. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. called the nonprofit Network for Hope "a bad apple" and accused it of "persistent safety failures" in announcing the government was starting the process to decertify it. Network for Hope is one of about 55 organ procurement organizations, or OPOs, that coordinate the recovery of organs from deceased donors and help match them to patients on the nation's transplant list. In a statement, Network for Hope said it "strongly disagrees" with Kennedy's decision and will appeal. Among the allegations is that in 2021, Network for Hope's predecessor organization pressured a local hospital to proceed with plans to withdraw life support and retrieve organs from a man despite signs that he was waking up from a drug overdose. The man survived and his sister joined Kennedy at a press briefing Wednesday, thanking him. OPOs cannot declare if someone is dead - only a doctor at the hospital treating the person can do that. Only after that declaration can a donor agency assume responsibility for the deceased, looking for potential recipients and scheduling surgeons to come in to retrieve the organs. Most donations come from people declared brain-dead. But sometimes doctors say a patient has a nonsurvivable injury and the family decides to withdraw life support - and in certain circumstances, that also can allow for donation. In its statement, Network for Hope said it complies with all federal organ policies. It said that over a year ago it implemented a "first-of-its-kind" new safeguard allowing anyone - including health professionals or family members - to call a pause in donation planning if there's any concern the patient won't be appropriate. Kentucky recently passed a law mandating that pause and the federal Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network is working on new rules that also would require all the nation's OPOs to implement it. More than 100,000 people are on the U.S. transplant list, the vast majority seeking a kidney, and thousands will die waiting for a new organ. There were more than 49,000 transplants last year, a record despite a small drop in donations from the deceased - the first such dip in a decade. UC Health issued the following statement Thursday: "UC Health remains committed to providing the highest-quality, safest care for its patients and to maintaining the integrity of the organ donation and transplantation process. Like many health systems across the region, UC Health partners with Network for Hope as one of its organ procurement partners support organ donation and transplant services. Because UC Health works with multiple organ procurement partners. Wcpo-tv do not anticipate any significant disruption to patient care or transplant services at this time. Wcpo-tv understand Network for Hope intends to appeal the decertification decision. Wcpo-tv will continue to monitor developments while working closely with its transplant partners and meeting all applicable regulatory requirements. Its focus remains on providing safe, high-quality care and ensuring patients awaiting lifesaving transplants continue to receive the care they need." Marketplace. Powered by
