To begin the enrollment process, fill out the Healthy Lifestyle Questionnaire below to determine what services are best for you. Be sure to answer all questions to the best of your ability. Skipping questions could delay your health screenings. 

If you’re not eligible for the screening program, you may be eligible for the EWM Diagnostic Program if you’re needing further diagnostic services (diagnostic mammogram, ultrasounds, breast biopsies, colposcopies, etc.).  If you’re in need of assistance paying for an office visit so that you can receive counseling and STI/STD testing, EWM can assist.  EWM does not pay for STI/STD testing.
