The NHS has this week rolled-out digital invitations and reminders for cervical screening via the NHS App, as part of a new ‘ping and book’ service to boost uptake and help save thousands of lives.
Eligible women will first receive a notification through the app to alert them to book a screening appointment, followed by a text message if the app notification isn’t opened. Letters will remain in place for those who need them.
PLEASE ENSURE YOU HAVE DOWNLOADED THE NHS APP, AND WE HAVE AN UP-TO-DATE TELEPHONE NUMBER FOR YOU
