Initial Assessment of Estimation of the NBCCEDP Eligible Population
Initial Assessment of Estimation of the NBCCEDP Eligible Population
Executive Summary
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have a congressional mandate to provide screening services for breast and cervical cancer to low-income, uninsured, and underserved women through the National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP). Currently, the NBCCEDP produces national and state participation rates for this program. Participation rates serve many functions such as evaluation of long-term performance by states and as an aid to grantees in prioritizing their resources toward at risk groups. Currently, calculating these participation rates relies on direct estimates from the Annual Social and Economic Supplement of the Current Population Survey, computed and tabulated by the U.S. Census Bureau. The state estimates contain 2-year and 3-year averages of the number of uninsured low-income women by age group (18-64, 40-64, and 50-64). The national estimates include the same information by race and ethnicity.
