First cervical screening annual standards report published
The report focuses on cervical screening performance in England
PHE Screening is delighted to publish its first annual data report on the national cervical screening programme standards.
The standards were updated and published in September 2018. This report focuses on performance in England from 1 April 2018 to 31 March 2019 but also includes trend data from previous years where this is available.
These standards support the assessment of the quality of the cervical screening programme across England. Publishing the data makes sure providers, commissioners, the public and other stakeholders have access to reliable and timely information on quality and performance.
