The NSW Cervical Screening Program is a jointly funded Commonwealth/State and territory initiative managed by the Cancer Institute NSW.
The goal of the NSW Cervical Screening Program is to achieve optimal reductions in the incidence of, and mortality and morbidity attributed to, cervical cancer, at an acceptable cost to the community.

Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable of all cancers. Pap tests pick up early warning signs that can be treated before cancer develops.
If you are between the ages of 18-70 years and have ever had sexual intercourse, you need to have a Pap test every two years.
