Medicare cash coming for universal HPV self-swabbing
All women in the cervical cancer screening program can be offered self-collection from next year
All women in the cervical cancer screening program will be eligible for self-collection from next year after the Federal Government accepted a recommendation from the Medical Services Advisory Committee.
Currently, vaginal self-swabbing for HPV DNA is restricted to women who have never been screened and those aged 30 or over who are two or more years overdue.
