Follow‐Up After Receiving Abnormal Results From Self‐Sampled Colorectal and Cervical Cancer Screening Tests Among Underserved Patients
Among this sample of patients who received abnormal results on their self-sampled colorectal or cervical cancer screening test, knowledge and understanding were not prerequisites for accessing follow-up care. Satisfaction with the self-sampling screening process was very high. These findings provide additional support for public health priorities to expand access to self-sampling cancer screening tests.
