Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The goal of this research study is to examine adherence to national guidelines for cervical cancer screening in women age \>65. Patient surveys will provide information about women age \>65 current cervical screening practices and allow researchers to compare that information to national recommended guidelines regarding cervical screenings. Provider surveys will provide information from surveyed providers about screening knowledge and current provider practices for women patients \> 65 for cervical cancer. The results may be used to make future recommendations for improving gynecological care and to help develop effective strategies for ensuring guideline adherence.
