Cervical Screening Test
From 1 December, cervical screening changed in Australia and for South Australian women. Pap smears have been replaced with a new Cervical Screening Test.
Where to get a Cervical Screening Test?
If you wish to make an appointment for a Cervical Screening Test, you can contact your local doctor or:
- Dale Street women’s health centre
- visit your nearest GP Plus Health Care Centre
- SHINE SA clinic at Adelaide or Woodville
- community health centre
- Aboriginal health service
When you make an appointment, ask your health service provider if there are any out of pocket expenses.
To find a doctor in your area, use the National Health Services Directory.
A Google search will also provide a list of some bulk billing general practices. If bulk billing is important to you, it is advisable to call the surgery to confirm your eligibility for bulk billing, before you make an appointment. If you would prefer a female health professional, don’t forget to ask if that is possible.
