• NPWH Launches Cervical Cancer Microsite

  

  NPWH is delighted to announce the launch of our new microsite www.TestForCervicalCancer.org.  This site underscores the importance of preventive cervical cancer screening and houses key information and statistics on PAP and HPV tests, including the value of screening using a Pap and HPV test combined (co-testing).

  This microsite is intended to be a resource on the latest data and information on preventing cervical cancer and early detection. The launch of the site comes on the heels of draft guidelines released last September by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force that recommend single testing for women between ages 30 and 65 but do not include co-testing. 

  Please consider sharing the link so we can ensure our patients continue to have access to all options, including co-testing.
