South Dakota Expands Women’s Cancer Screenings | Pierre News

South Dakota is revolutionizing women’s health care—starting September 1—with sweeping changes to its All Women Count! program. Cervical cancer screenings now begin at age 21 (down from 30), aligning with national guidelines to catch issues earlier. Breast cancer diagnostics are also expanding: women aged 21–39 with symptoms can now qualify, alongside the existing 40–64 group, as long as they meet income eligibility. This bold move targets uninsured and underinsured women up to 250% of the federal poverty level, making early detection more accessible and dramatically improving outcomes for thousands across the state.
