Breast cancer affects more than one in 10 women in Australia and if found early and treated promptly, most women with breast cancer can lead a normal life. Over the last 10 years, deaths from breast cancer have fallen by almost 20%. CBHS is committed to assisting in decreasing this number. By paying a benefit towards mammograms, it helps to encourage women of all ages to have a mammogram.
