Ontario Cervical Screening Program
The Ontario Cervical Screening Program (OCSP) has produced eight videos on frequently asked questions that the program receives from providers who offer cervical screening. These videos address the use of the human papillomavirus (HPV) test as the primary test of the OCSP, as well as tips on how to communicate HPV test results to patients, and how to prepare patients for a visit to colposcopy.
