Excerpts from the Application:
Purpose
The purpose of this Application Guidance is to provide eligible applicants information on completion of the application for the FY25 Care for Yourself (CFY) - Breast and Cervical Cancer Screening Program. Services covered by this application include financial support to local Boards of Health to assure the provision of outreach, patient navigation, participant enrollment, linking participants to and providing payment for breast and cervical cancer screenings and diagnostic services, and data reporting services for program-eligible people.
The Agency is actively working to strengthen our capacity to address health inequities in Iowa. Health Equity is defined as the attainment of the highest possible level of health for all people by achieving the environmental, social, economic and other conditions in which all people have the opportunity to attain their highest possible level of health. This program promotes health equity by providing access to breast and cervical cancer screening, patient navigation, and follow-up diagnostic services to uninsured, underinsured and insured Iowans who identify difficulty or inability to access these services on their own. The program prioritizes populations who have disparate cancer screening, incidence, and mortality rates.
