Organizacja i finansowanie programów z zakresu profilaktyki raka szyjki macicy skierowanych do kobiet w województwie śląskim
Organi-sation and financing of the programmes from the scope of cervical cancer prevention targeted at women in the Silesian Voivodeship

Summary/Abstract: Cervical cancer is a global epidemiological problem nowadays. Screening, financed by the Polish National Health Fund, is the basis for the secondary prevention of cervical cancer. The aim of the study was to present organizational and financial aspects of programmes for the prevention of cervical cancer on the example of the Silesian Voivodeship. The project was realized in the period from 01.06.2014 to 31.01.2015. The high cost of implementation of the programme and the low proportion of women participating in screening are the impulse to improve the existing and develop new solutions undertaken in the primary prevention of cervical cancer. It is recommended to extend the field of educational activities directed at women and medical personnel, mobilize more women to participate in the free cytology and the removal of barriers to the use of this service. In addition, it is recommended to increase the efficiency of resource allocation and coordination of prevention activities.
