Affordable $56 Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Ultrasound Screening to Protect Heart Health

Union Hospital Clinton is committed to supporting the health and well-being of our community by offering an affordable $56 Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) screening. This important screening can detect a potentially life-threatening condition before it becomes a serious problem. The hospital continues to prioritize heart health, providing accessible and effective care to those in need.

An Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) is a dangerous bulging or swelling in the major blood vessel that carries blood from the heart to the lower body. If left undetected, it can rupture, leading to life-threatening consequences. Unfortunately, AAA often has no symptoms, making it difficult to detect without a screening. Early detection is crucial, as it can save lives.

Union Hospital Clinton is offering this life-saving screening for just $56, ensuring that cost is not a barrier for individuals who need this vital service. The screening is simple, painless and quick, providing peace of mind for those at risk.

Who Should Get Screened?

While anyone can develop an AAA, certain groups are at higher risk and should consider getting screened. This includes those aged 65-75, particularly those who smoke or have a family history of heart disease or aneurysms. Even if you don’t have symptoms, if you fall into one of these categories, it’s essential to talk to your doctor about scheduling a screening.
