Mercy Health — Springfield will once again “Shine a Light on Lung Cancer” to help raise awareness surrounding early detection of lung cancer. The annual event will take place on Thursday, November 6, from 5 to 7 p.m. at the State Theater, 19 South Fountain Avenue in Springfield. There will be guest speakers, vendors, raffle baskets, food and drinks, and a special tribute to honor those affected by lung cancer. Attendees will also have the opportunity to explore a mega inflatable lung, offering a powerful visual of the impact lung cancer can have on the body.

“Every year, we see how education and community engagement can truly make a difference,” said Mercy Health Lung Care Coordinator Angela Wagner, RN. “This event is about empowering people with knowledge and encouraging them to prioritize their lung health. Early detection saves lives, and we want our community to know screening is available and effective."

Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in Clark and Champaign counties. To learn more, call 937-523-LUNG (5864).

Our friends at the Breast Friends of Champaign County recently hosted their annual gala with a super fun theme of Boots, Bowties, and Bling.

It was a special event with two highlights for Mercy Health….Breast Friends President Kris Campbell presented Mercy Health — Urbana Cancer Center with a $10,000 check and pledged another $10,000 over the next five years.

Secondly, Ann Hembree, our social worker at the Urbana Cancer Center, was awarded the Hope Award for her dedication to the committee, the cancer center team and the communities of Clark and Champaign Counties! Way to go, Ann!

We love that we have a shared goal to increase awareness of breast cancer, promote early detection through screening, and support patients and survivors.

We’d like to share an important update with our valued patients who have Humana Managed Medicaid or Medicare Advantage insurance coverage.

We’re in active negotiations with Humana and are committed to a fair resolution that ensures you and your family continue receiving the high-quality care you deserve. Your health is our priority, and we’re doing everything we can to maintain your in-network access to the Mercy Health facilities and caregivers you know and trust.

If an agreement isn't reached before December 1, 2025, Mercy Health will become out-of-network for Humana Managed Medicaid and Medicare Advantage plans. For details on how this may affect you and what actions you can take, please visit www.mercy.com/humana-updates.
