Women's Health	Score	Clinic Score	Statewide Average
Mammogram Testing for breast cancer using mammograms ? What is being measured? A mammogram is an x-ray of the inside of the breast to check for signs of breast cancer. When breast cancer starts, it is a very small lump and there are usually no symptoms. Mammograms can find breast cancer at an early stage when the lump is still too small for a woman or her doctor to feel it. This quality score is based on the percentage of women patients (ages 50-74) who had a mammogram during a recent two-year period. For this test, what is meant by better, average, and below? For each doctor's office, the percentage of patients who got a mammogram is turned into a quality score by comparing the percentage for that doctor's office to the statewide average of 67.7%. 'Better' means 79.40% or more women patients got a mammogram 'Average' means between 56.2% and 79.3% of women patients got a mammogram 'Below' means 56.10% or fewer women patients got a mammogram How can you use this information?

Pap Test Testing for cervical cancer using a Pap smear test ? What is being measured? A Pap test checks for signs of cancer in the cervix (the cervix is the lower part of the uterus that opens into the vagina). For this test, a sample of cells from the cervix is checked under a microscope for signs of cervical cancer. Staying up-to-date on Pap tests is important because cervical cancer usually does not cause pain or symptoms until the cancer is at a late stage. This quality score is based on the percentage of women patients (ages 21 to 64) who got one or more Pap tests for cervical cancer during a recent 3-year period. For this test, what is meant by better, average, and below? For each doctor's office, the percentage of patients who got a Pap test is turned into a quality score by comparing the percentage for that doctor's office to the statewide average of 61.60%. 'Better' means 72.20% or more women patients got a Pap test 'Average' means between 51.2% and 72.1% of women patients got a Pap test 'Below' means 51.10% or fewer women patients got a Pap test How can you use this information?

Chlamydia Screening Testing for chlamydia infection which can lead to infertility ? What is being measured? Chlamydia is an infection that is spread by sexual contact. Since there are usually no symptoms, Chlamydia is sometimes called a 'silent' disease. If a person is tested and Chlamydia is found, the infection can be treated and cured with antibiotics. If a woman has Chlamydia and it is not found and treated, it can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease, which can cause infertility. A test for Chlamydia in women involves swabbing the vagina when doing a pelvic exam and can be done at the same time a woman receives a Pap test. Because Chlamydia is most common among young women, this website's quality information looks at what percentage of young women patients at each doctor's office got this test. The quality score is based on young women patients who made at least one visit to a doctor's office during a recent 1-year period. 'Young women patients' mean sexually active women ages 16–24.

For each doctor's office, the percentage of patients who got a Chlamydia test is turned into a quality score by comparing the percentage for that doctor's office to the statewide average of 43.3%. 'Better' means 53.50% or more women patients got a Chlamydia test 'Average' means between 33.3% and 53.4% of women patients got a Chlamydia test Below' means 33.20% or fewer women patients got a Chlamydia test How can you use this information? Both in Oregon and nationwide, the low percentages for Chlamydia testing show that this type of testing is not done nearly as often as it should be. If you are a sexually active woman between the ages of 16 and 24, talk with your doctor about whether a Chlamydia test is right for you.		44.8%

But when you have the A-1-C laboratory blood test, you find out how well your blood sugar has been controlled, on average, over a period of time. Often, there are no symptoms to warn people when their blood sugar has been staying too high. To know for sure whether blood sugar is staying at a healthy level or not, people with diabetes need to have an A-1-C test at least twice a year. Keeping blood sugar close to normal helps prevent or delay the health problems that can happen when people have diabetes.
