• Contextual Overview

• The Department of Health, NHS Cervical Screening Programme (NHSCSP) and Strategic Health Authorities require information from Primary Care Trusts on Cervical Screening.

• The information helps to monitor the process of achieving the Government's target to reduce the incidence of invasive cervical cancer and to ensure that the screening programme is managed effectively. It is used to monitor coverage by the cervical screening programme of the eligible Primary Care Trust responsible population.

• Information on the return is also used in Public Expenditure Survey (PES) negotiations, resource allocation to the NHS and Departmental accountability.

• Information based on the KC53 return is published annually by the Department in the Statistical Bulletin `Cervical Screening Programme'.

  Completing Return KC53: Cervical Screening Programme

The services provided to the population under this programme may be carried out by one or more Health Care Providers - NHS Trust, general medical practitioner (GMP), private or voluntary organisation or any combination of these.

• Information on Cervical Screening should be readily available from the call and recall service's computerised call and recall system.

• The return requires the ORGANISATION CODE and ORGANISATION NAME of the Primary Care Trust. It requires information about women (PERSONS) on the lists of GPs in the Primary Care Trust and women from the unregistered population who live in the geographical area for which the Primary Care Trust is responsible at 31 March.

  A Pathology Laboratory is a Laboratory.

• The information helps to monitor the process of achieving the Government's target to reduce the incidence of invasive cervical cancer and to ensure that the screening programme is managed effectively. The information is used to ensure that the laboratory is achieving acceptable standards in examining smears in line with guidance provided by the NHS Cervical Screening Programme.

• Information on the return is also used in Public Expenditure Survey (PES) negotiations, resource allocation to the NHS and Departmental accountability.

• Information based on the KC61 return is published annually by the Department in the Statistical Bulletin `Cervical Screening Programme'.

  Completing Return KC61: Pathology Laboratories - Cervical Cytology and Outcome of Referrals

• KC61 returns are required by all Pathology Laboratories carrying out cervical cytology within NHS Health Care Providers. This applies to independently managed NHS laboratories, including cytopathology laboratories and also private laboratories if they are commissioned to report on smears for the NHS.

  Each return requires the ORGANISATION CODE and ORGANISATION NAME of the NHS Trust and must be signed by a CONSULTANT in one of the Pathology MAIN SPECIALTY CODES. It also requires the pathology LABORATORY NAME and pathology LABORATORY CODE. Note that pathology LABORATORY CODES are maintained and issued by the Organisation Data Service on behalf of the NHS Cervical Screening Programme.

• Where more than one slide is associated with one Request for Pathology Investigation, only the most significant CYTOLOGY RESULT TYPES may be counted for the KC61.

• The return KC61 is completed annually and submitted within two months of the end of the period.

• Parts A and B of the return relate to all smears reported by the laboratory where the smear was received and registered between 1 April of one year and 31 March of the following year. If this date is not recorded, the CERVICAL SMEAR EXAMINED DATE can be used as a proxy. Part C1 of the return relates to smears where the date of the smear which led to a referral fell in the first three months of the financial year (April, May and June). Part C2 is a duplicate of Part C1, but will collect data relating to gynaecological referrals from smears registered during the whole of the financial year prior to the current year.

  In addition, if a person in a Screening Programme has been suspended from the Screening Programme following colposcopy and is currently having surveillance smears as indicated by the OPPORTUNISTIC SCREENING TYPE classification of 'Screened while recall suspended', it may be that an abnormal smear will cause the woman to be re-referred to colposcopy. In this case the COLPOSCOPY REFERRAL INDICATION classification should be 'Screening smear', regardless of whether or not she has been discharged from colposcopy at this time.

• The information in columns 2-8 is based on the cervical screening test results, which led to the REFERRAL REQUEST. Classifications are those of CYTOLOGY RESULT TYPES of a Request for Pathology Investigation and are in accordance with the categories shown in box 22 of HMR 101/5 Request/Report for Cervical or Vaginal Cytology.

  Where the cervical screening test results which led to the REFERRAL REQUEST indicates more than one result type, the most severe result should recorded as the CYTOLOGY RESULT TYPE.

• These columns count women with a REFERRAL REQUEST for colposcopy with a COLPOSCOPY REFERRAL INDICATION classification of 'Clinical indication'.

  Where a woman is referred with symptoms and is given a Screening Test the COLPOSCOPY REFERRAL INDICATION should still be a classification of 'Clinical indication' and not 'Screening smear'. Where no symptoms are present the COLPOSCOPY REFERRAL INDICATION should not be a classification of 'Clinical indication'.
