Two programs were dropped from these calculations because of insufficient screening data.
No data on the number of mammograms that were performed using non-CDC funds were available, so this calculation includes only the 28 programs with complete data that did not perform any mammograms using non-CDC funds.
No data on the number of Pap tests that were performed using non-CDC funds was available, so this calculation includes only the 33 programs with complete data that did not perform any Pap tests using non-CDC funds.
