This Step-by-Step User Guide is the instruction manual for enrolling women and entering data on the Internet for the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Cancer Detection Section’s (CDS) breast and cervical cancer screening program known as Cancer Detection Programs: Every Woman Counts (CDP: EWC). Only Primary Care Providers (PCPs) will complete the online Recipient Information form, the Breast and Cervical Cancer Screen forms and the Breast and Cervical Cancer Follow-Up forms. PCPs will need computers with Internet access to complete these forms. Recipient information is mandated by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and other programs sponsored by the National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP) to monitor clinical outcomes. PCPs are eligible for reimbursement of case management services rendered upon submission of complete and accurate recipient data using the appropriate online forms. This complete and accurate data is necessary for continued NBCCEDP funding of CDP: EWC.
