Cervical cancer screening coverage

Definition	Number of cervical cancer smears in women age 30 and older screened for cervical cancer divided by the female target population (age 30 and older). Since the policy is that each woman should be tested once every 10 years, when considered annually this indicator should be multiplied by 10 to assess the annual coverage.
