Breast and cervical screening support service providers
In November 2016, National Screening Unit (NSU) announced its list of preferred providers who will deliver breast and cervical screening support services as part of the $3.45 million annual programme for priority group women. Priority women include Māori, Pacific, Asian (for cervical screening), as well as unscreened, and under-screened women.
The NSU is looking forward to working closely with these providers to ensure women receive the very best care across the country.
We would like to thank the providers we have been working with for their commitment to educating and supporting priority group women to screening appointments and improving their coverage.
For more information about the tender and selection process, see Providers for breast and cervical screening support services.
