Methodist Health System is proud to offer two comprehensive breast centers:
Jennie Edmundson Hospital - The Breast Health Center
Methodist Estabrook Cancer Center - The Breast Care Center
Jennie Edmundson Hospital Breast Health Center and Methodist Estabrook Cancer Center (MECC) Breast Care Center have been granted a three-year, full accreditation designation by the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC), a program administered by the American College of Surgeons.
Jennie Edmundson Breast Health Center is one of only two centers in Iowa to receive the designation and MECC is the first accredited breast care center in Nebraska.
Accreditation by the NAPBC is only granted to breast centers that have voluntarily committed to provide the highest level of quality breast care and that undergo a rigorous evaluation process and review of their performance.
