  • Cancer Screening'Plan Do Study Act'

    Cancer in Australia Cancer is the leading burden of disease in Australia1. Along with cardiovascular disease, it is Australia’s leading underlying cause of death; in 2014, cancer accounted for about 3 of every 10 deaths registered2. Cancer is known to have a substantial impact on the social and economic state of individuals, families and the Australian healthcare system2.

    In 2013, there were 124,465 new cases of cancer diagnosed in Australia, with this number expected to increase2. In 2014, the number of deaths from cancer in Australia was 44,1712. The risk of an individual dying from cancer was 1 in 4 for males and 1 in 6 for females. The most commonly diagnosed cancers in 2017 were breast, colorectal (bowel), prostate, melanoma and lung cancer2. These five most common cancers account for 60% of all cancer cases in Australia.

    National Cancer Screening Programs Cancer prevention and early detection practices including screening, play an important role in reducing the prevalence of cancer in Australia. Cancer screening programs aim to reduce cancer causing illnesses and deaths through a public health approach of early detection of cancer and pre-cancerous abnormalities and follow-up treatment2. Australia has three cancer screening programs: National Bowel Cancer Screening Program, BreastScreen Australia, and National Cervical Screening Program, which run through partnerships between the Australian Government and state and territory governments. The programs target specific populations and age groups where evidence shows screening is most effective at reducing cancer-related morbidity and mortality2. Since their inception in Australia, they have had a major impact in early intervention and reducing cancer related deaths2.

    However, despite all three national cancer screening programs being available to eligible Australians, participation for each screening program is below desirable level2. In WA, participation rates are particularly low in regional areas.

  • What is a ‘Plan Do Study Act’ cycle? A ‘Plan Do Study Act’ (PDSA) Cycle uses a ‘trial and learning’ approach in which an idea, hypothesis or a suggested solution for improvement is made and then tested on a small scale before any changes are made to the whole system. It is a cyclical model because the desired improvement is not always achieved in one cycle so the process is refined and the cycle repeated. PDSA Cycles are Category 1 activities in the RACGP QI&CPD program and are inherent Quality Improvement activities.

    As part of the GP Education Project, Cancer Council WA has developed education activities on bowel, breast and cervical cancer screening to support GPs in identifying and encouraging eligible patients to participate in the three National Cancer Screening Programs.

    Activity summary One cycle of a PDSA activity includes four components; plan the change (P), do the change (D), study (S) and act on the results (A). Each of these three activities includes four cycles:

    Cycle 1 – Identify eligible patients GPs with the assistance of practice staff are required to review their patient records using practice’s available clinical software and randomly identify twenty patients (per GP) who fit the eligibility for cancer screening. Selected patient records are audited and information is recorded on screening status, recall and reminder.

    Cycle 2 – Discuss and design Practice staff are to meet and discuss the results from cycle 1 and develop a practice approach to increase cancer screening participation of identified patients through the use of recalls/reminders and promotion of the National Cancer Screening Programs. GP/practice is also required to set a target for patients that they aim to have participated in cancer screening by the end of the activity.

    Cycle 3 – Implement approach With the help of staff members, implement the approach designed in cycle 2 at the practice with the identified patients to improve their participation in the National Cancer Screening programs and record the approach taken.

    Cycle 4 – Review and evaluate GPs with the assistance of practice staff are required to evaluate the practice approach implemented in cycle 3. Review records of same patients and record any changes since the

    Study Act

    start of the activity, including how many of the identified patients from Cycle 1 engaged and participated in cancer screening. Results are used to determine any improvement in participation achieved against the target agreed in cycle 2.

    Each of these three activities can be undertaken by an individual GP, a group of GPs or by the whole practice (with the assistance of practice manager and practice nurses). Depending on who is involved in the completion of the activity will influence the roles and responsibilities in each cycle of the PDSA. GPs and practices can choose to complete one, two or all three activities based on their patient demographic and area of interest.

    These PDSA activities are expected to be completed over the course of four to six months. A minimum of six hours of work (per activity) is needed to meet the requirements of RACGP Category 1 activity.

    Accreditation The Cervical Screening PDSA activity is accredited under the RACGP QI&CPD program for the 2017-19 triennium.

  • Cervical Screening 'Plan Do Study Act' (PDSA)

    Cervical cancer in Australia Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers. Cervical cancer incidence for women of all ages remains at an historical low of 7 new cases per 100,000 women, and deaths are also low, historically and by international standards, at 2 deaths per 100,000 women1. Human papillomavirus (HPV), which leads to cell changes in the cervix, is the cause of nearly all cervical cancer cases. The virus can be detected through a simple Cervical Screening Test. Women who have never been screened or are under screened are at an increased risk of cervical cancer2.

    National Cervical Screening Program Recent changes to the National Cervical Screening Program (NCSP) in Australia have resulted in the two-yearly Pap smear being replaced with a more accurate f i v e - y e a r l y Cervical Screening Test. Women aged 25-74 are eligible to participate. The new Cervical Screening Test looks for HPV, with partial genotyping. If HPV is detected the laboratory will automatically conduct a cytology test (reflex cytology) on the same sample. To assist in increasing cervical screening participation amongst never screened and under screened women, in early 2018 eligible women can be offered the option of a self-collected vaginal sample for HPV3.

    These changes to screening are expected to protect up to 30 per cent more women from cervical cancer4. This ensures women in Australia have access to a cervical screening program that is safe, effective, efficient and based on current evidence4. For eligible women, the first Cervical Screening Test is usually due two years after their last Pap smear and then, if they receive a negative HPV result, every five years after that. Pap smears are no longer available on the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) and have been replaced by the new Cervical Screening Test. For more information on the new pathology MBS items for cervical screening, view the MBS NCSP factsheet available in the appendix.

    The new National Cancer Screening Register (NCSR) has been established to support the renewed clinical pathway. The NCSR provides a safety net for women reminding them and the healthcare providers when a woman is overdue for screening or a follow up test. It is important for general practitioners (GPs) to continue to provide a recall and reminder service for women in their practice. As a confidential database of all cervical screening

    6

  • tests taken in Australia, the NCSR can be used to support GPs through the provision of women’s cervical screening histories to assist in clinical management. Until the NCSR is fully operational, the WA Cervical Screening Registry is available to support GPs.

    Cervical screening in general practice As the first point of contact for health issues for many women in Australia, GPs play a key role in ensuring the success of the NCSP. Since the introduction of the NCSP in 1991, the incidence and mortality of cervical cancer has more than halved1. Despite this significant impact, in 2014–2015, only 57 per cent of the target population participated in the NCSP at a two-yearly interval as recommended in the Pap smear based screening guidelines2.

    GPs play a critical role in educating women on the benefits of participating in routine cervical screening5. Due to the changes in cervical cancer screening, GPs need to know who is currently eligible to screen. In addition, implementation of key strategies in general practice, such as, GP endorsement, recall and reminder systems, auditing of patients eligible for screening, practice endorsement through display of brochures and opportunistic screening will ensure GPs continue to contribute to the success of the NCSP.

    The renewed NCSP invites women aged 25–74 years to have a Cervical Screening Test every five years, in line with the new policy and guidelines.

  • Cervical Screening PDSA Activity summary As part of the GP Education Project, Cancer Council WA has developed an RACGP and ACRRM accredited education activity to support GPs in identifying and encouraging eligible patients to participate in cervical screening through the NCSP.

    The goal of the activity is To increase participation in NCSP of under screened and never screened women in your practice by engaging with women, increasing awareness of the NCSP and encouraging informed participation. Under screened: women two or more years overdue for screening (i.e. four years or more since last Pap test or seven or more years since last Cervical Screening Test). Never screened: women aged 30 to 74 years who have no Pap smear or Cervical Screening Test result.

    What changes will you make to result in an improvement? Patients who are identified as under screened or never screened will be contacted by the GP/ practice and encouraged to make an appointment to participate in cervical screening. Should a patient who has been identified to be under screened or never screened present to the practice, cervical screening will be offered at this time or an appointment made for screening.

    How will you know that the change is an improvement? An improvement will be observed if women who had previously not participated in regular cervical screening, start to participate. GP/Practice can set a target. For example, if 100 women in their practice are identified to be under screened or never screened, a goal may be for 50 of these women to have a Cervical Screening Test in the next four to six months.

    Learning outcomes At the end of the activity GPs/Practice staff should be able to:

    1. Analyse the practice’s current recall and reminder procedures/systems for cervicalscreening participation of eligible women who are under screened or never screened.

    2. Identify women who are under screened or never screened and therefore at risk forcervical cancer.

    3. Develop and implement a recall and reminder system targeting women who areunder screened or never screened.

    8

  • 4. Evaluate the effectiveness of the recall and reminder system developed as part ofthis activity.

    5. Promote and contribute to the delivery of the NCSP.

    New Pathology MBS items for Cervical and Vaginal Tests

    Last updated: 1/12/2017

    From 1 December 2017, a new Cervical Screening Test every five years will replace the existing two yearly Pap test.

    To align pathology MBS items for cervical screening will change from December 1 2017. This will have practical implications for healthcare providers, clinicians, and consumers alike.

    What do the changes involve?

    There will be new pathology MBS items for cervical and vaginal screening tests, to reflect changes to the National Cervical Screening Program (NCSP), aligning with clinical best practice. The previously used MBS cervical screening items will be deleted.

    Pap tests will no longer be eligible for Medicare rebates, meaning that patients may be charged if this test is requested.

    Pathology laboratories will assign the pathology MBS item number based on the information provided on the pathology request form.

    There are new naming conventions to write on the pathology request forms these are in the last column of the Pathology Test Guide for Cervical and Vaginal Testing.

    You may also need to include some additional information that supports the screening or test type written on the pathology request form this may include age, presentation and clinical history.

    Appropriate assignment of pathology MBS numbers by pathology labs is important in ensuring that patients avoid unnecessary out-of-pocket expenses for testing. It also enables laboratories to provide the correct clinical management recommendations, and accurate and timely reports on testing rates. This will in turn support the ongoing monitoring and evaluation of the new NCSP

    Healthcare providers will still perform a vaginal speculum examination and take a cervical sample, but the sample medium is liquid-based and will be tested for the presence of HPV. If HPV is detected the laboratory will automatically conduct a cytology test.

    Why is the Government making this change?

    The new Cervical Screening Test is expected to protect up to 30% more people from cervical cancer.

    The new test is more effective because it detects the human papillomavirus (HPV). Human papillomavirus, also known as HPV, is a common virus that can cause cervical cell abnormalities that in rare cases may develop into cervical cancer.

    The new Cervical Screening Test and pathway is a risk-based approach to the management of patients. Patients are managed according to their risk of developing cervical abnormalities and that is determined by their Cervical Screening Test result, namely the HPV result and reflex liquid based cytology (LBC) if indicated.

    The Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) items for cervical and vaginal pathology testing for cervical pre-cancer and cancer have been updated to support the revised clinical management pathway and renewed National Cervical Screening Program (NCSP). There will be seven new MBS item numbers, and the currently used item numbers will be deleted.

    The new Cervical Screening Test and pathway will better identify patients at risk of pre-cancerous abnormalities and cervical cancer.

    What are the changes?

    There are several major changes to cervical screening practice in the renewed NCSP.

    Five-yearly routine Cervical Screening Tests (CSTs) are recommended for asymptomatic patients from 25 up to 74 years of age, with a previously normal screening history. Where HPV is not detected, patients aged 70–74 years are eligible to exit the program.

    Testing methodology and pathology MBS item numbers have changed. This means that pathology request forms need to be filled in differently from previously, and it is important that the appropriate test name and supporting patient information is written on the request form.

    The renewed NCSP will be supported by the new National Cancer Screening Register (NCSR), and there are new ‘opt out’ procedures for patients.

    Self -collection will not be immediately offered with the renewed program on 1 December 2017.

    What do screening providers need to do?

    Healthcare service providers need to become familiar with the changes to the NCSP, and how these changes will affect their patients and practice.

    For the pathology laboratory to correctly test your patient’s sample you need to provide the patient’s presentation, age and screening history on the pathology request form, as detailed in the Pathology Tests for Cervical and Vaginal Testing Quick Guide.

    Self-collection will be available to encourage women who are under screened or never screened and have refused to have a healthcare provider collected sample. Women must be 30 years of age or older and overdue for cervical screening by two years or more to be eligible for an MBS funded test. A self-collect sample contains vaginal cells only (not cells from the cervix) and can be tested for HPV only.

    Self-collection will not be offered with the renewal program on 1 December 2017 but it is expected that it will be offered later in 2018. More information about self-collection will be available when it becomes available at www.cancerscreening.gov.au/cervical

    The Australian Government Department of Health’s National Cervical Screening Program website has a range of practical resources for clinicians and consumers regarding the new NCSP and should be consulted for further information about screening, follow-up and clinical management for cervical cancers and pre-cancerous abnormalities.

    Change to item description / fees:

    Following a period of extensive stakeholder consultation, the Department is pleased to provide the National Cervical Screening Program Renewal MBS item descriptors, associated fees and explanatory statement, which will come into effect from 1 December, 2017.

    Explanatory notes

    It is the responsibility of the treating healthcare practitioner to determine if the sample is being collected as part of the routine screening program under 73070 or 73071 or represents a sample falling under 73072 or 73073 or 73074 or 73075 or 73076, and to indicate this on the request form.  Unless a co-test is specifically requested, requiring the pathology laboratory to perform both a human papillomavirus (HPV) test and a liquid based cytology (LBC) test on the same specimen, the pathology laboratory will by default perform an HPV test and then only undertake reflex LBC testing if oncogenic HPV (any type) is detected.  The pathology laboratory will issue the HPV test result, the LBC test result and overall screening risk rating as a combined report as prescribed by the National Pathology Accreditation Advisory Council (NPAAC) Requirements for Laboratories reporting tests for the National Cervical Screening Program (NPAAC Requirements).

    The test used for detecting oncogenic HPV must allow partial HPV genotyping to identify HPV16, HPV18 with or without HPV45 as well as meet the criteria for a population based screening test as prescribed by the NPAAC Requirements.

    When used together, the self-collection device and the HPV test must meet the NPAAC Requirements, including the HPV test must be a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test.

    73070 applies to an HPV test on a cervical specimen for primary screening purposes and collected by a healthcare practitioner (or an accredited test provider under the supervision of a healthcare practitioner) from an asymptomatic patient as part of routine five yearly screening recommended by the National Cervical Screening Program.  The Health Insurance Act 1973 excludes payment of Medicare Benefits for health screening services except where Ministerial directions have been issued to enable benefits to be paid, this includes HPV testing that is performed in accordance with the policy of the National Cervical Screening Program (available at www.cancerscreening.gov.au).  This policy provides for a screening interval of five years for an asymptomatic patient commencing at 24 years and 9 months of age and for a patient aged between 70 to 74 years of age to cease cervical screening if the last test result is normal (i.e. low risk).  A patient aged 75 years of age or older who has never had a cervical screening test or has not had one in the previous five years, may request a cervical screening test and be screened.

    In accordance with the national policy for the National Cervical Screening Program, where oncogenic HPV (any type) is detected, the pathology laboratory will conduct  reflex LBC automatically under 73076 (a) without requiring an additional request by the treating healthcare professional.

    73071 only applies to HPV tests for primary screening purposes requested by a healthcare practitioner on a self-collected vaginal specimen if a specimen collected by a healthcare practitioner has been declined.

    HPV testing on self collected vaginal specimens carried out under 73071 should be in accordance with the agreed National Cervical Screening Program Self Collection Policy. The Policy allows self collection where a patient is ≥ 30 years of age and has either never screened or is under screened (i.e. overdue for cervical screening by at least two years, being greater than 7 years since the patient’s last HPV screening test). A patient aged 75 years of age or older who has never had a cervical screening test or has not had one in the previous seven years, may request a Self- collected vaginal sample and be screened.

    During the early years of the transition, this may include a patient who is overdue since the patient’s last conventional Pap test (i.e. greater than four years since last conventional Pap).

    It is the intention of the National Cervical Screening Program where oncogenic HPV has previously been detected under this Item, the healthcare practitioner collected liquid based sample from the cervix that follows, can be claimed under 73076 (a) with a further request by the treating healthcare practitioner.

    73072 applies to HPV tests where the specimen has been collected in accordance with the National Cervical Screening Program: Guidelines for the Management of Screen Detected Abnormalities, Screening in Specific Populations and Investigation of Abnormal Vaginal Bleeding (2016 Guidelines) which provides for:

    (a)an HPV test (and reflex LBC) performed on a patient within a specific population suggestive of a higher risk of pre-cancerous or cancerous cervical changes. HPV tests carried out in specific populations under Item C should be in accordance with the 2016 Guidelines including:

    (i)screening with an HPV test (and reflex LBC) every 3 years for an immune-deficient patient; or

    (ii)a single HPV test between 20 and 24 years of age could be considered by healthcare practitioners on a case by case basis for a patient who experienced first sexual activity at a young age (less than 14 years of age) and who has not received the HPV vaccine before sexual debut; or

    (b)an HPV test (and reflex LBC) performed for the follow up management of previously detected oncogenic HPV infection with a negative or possible/low grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) cytology result; or

    (c)a co-test (HPV+LBC) for the investigation of symptoms of cervical cancer, most commonly abnormal vaginal bleeding; or

    (d)a co-test (HPV+LBC) for the management of a patient following treatment of high grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) of the cervix as part of a ‘test of cure’ process performed at 12 months after treatment and annually thereafter, until receiving a negative co-test on two separate consecutive occasions, then the patient can return to routine five yearly screening. In accordance with the 2016 Guidelines this also applies to a patient undergoing follow up or post-treatment for a glandular abnormality as part of annual surveillance performed indefinitely; or

    (e)a co-test (HPV+LBC) for the follow up management of glandular abnormalities; or

    (f)a co-test (HPV+LBC) for screening a patient exposed to diethylstilboestrol (DES) in utero and daughters of patients exposed to DES in utero, if requested.

    A co-test requires both HPV and LBC tests to be performed irrespective of the HPV test result. A reflex LBC is only required if oncogenic HPV (any type) is detected; where oncogenic HPV (any type) has been detected in a liquid based sample from the cervix by a healthcare professional, the pathology laboratory will conduct LBC automatically without requiring an additional request. It is the intention of the National Cervical Screening Program where a co-test is requested or oncogenic HPV has previously been detected under this Item, the LBC can be claimed under 73076 without requiring an additional request by the treating healthcare professional.

    73073 applies to the management of a patient with previously detected oncogenic HPV (any type) infection on a Self-collected vaginal sample if a specimen collected by a healthcare practitioner has been declined. It may only be claimed when the test is performed within in a 21 month period following detection of oncogenic HPV (any type) associated with 73071.

    It is expected that most patients who are undergoing follow up, after detection of oncogenic HPV (any type) on a Self-collected vaginal sample, will agree to have a clinician collected cervical sample at the follow up visit. Some patients may decline and this Item applies to this group of patients.

    It is the intention of the National Cervical Screening Program where oncogenic HPV has previously been detected under this Item, the healthcare practitioner collected liquid based sample from the cervix that follows, can be claimed under 73076 (a) with a further request by the treating healthcare practitioner.

    73074 applies to an HPV test on a vaginal vault specimen collected by a healthcare practitioner (or an accredited test provider under the supervision of a healthcare practitioner) from a patient with past history of total hysterectomy, in accordance with the 2016 Guidelines which provides for:

    (a)an HPV test for a patient who has no evidence of cervical pathology and the patient’s screening history is not available, performed at 12 months following a total hysterectomy and annually thereafter until a patient has two negative HPV tests (i.e. oncogenic HPV detected) on two separate consecutive occasions and can be advised that no further testing is required; or

    (b)a co-test (HPV+LBC) for a patient who has had a total hysterectomy, performed at 12 months following a total hysterectomy and annually thereafter until two consecutive co-tests are negative:

    (i)if unexpected LSIL or HSIL is identified in the cervix at the time of total hysterectomy after completed ‘test of cure’ process; or

    (ii)if the total hysterectomy was for treatment of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia in the presence of benign gynaecological disease; or

    (iii)if the total hysterectomy was after histologically confirmed HSIL without Test of Cure and there is no cervical pathology; or

    (c)indefinite co-testing (HPV+LBC) for a patient who has had a total hysterectomy, performed at 12 months after treatment and annually thereafter if the total hysterectomy was after adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS).

    73075 applies to HPV tests repeated due to an unsatisfactory HPV test under 73070 or 73071 or 73072 or 73073 or 73074 or this item.

    73076 applies to a LBC test on a cervical or vaginal vault specimen:

    (a)as part of a reflex test following detection of oncogenic HPV (any type) described in the national policy and 2016 Guidelines associated with:

    (i)items 73070 or 73071 or or 73073 or 73074 or 73075; or

    (ii)item 73072 for a patient mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b);

    (b)as part of a co-test (i.e. HPV+LBC) described in the national policy and 2016 Guidelines under 73072 for a patient mentioned in paragraph (c) or (d) or (e) of (f); or

    (c)associated with a test to which item 73074 applies;

    (d)if the test is a repeat of a test to which this item applies, if the specimen collected for the previous test is unsatisfactory; or

    (d)for the follow up management of a patient with a past history of total hysterectomy for endometrial adenocarcinoma.

    National Cervical Screening Program - please book an appointment for a cervical screening test

    Dear [Patients Name],

    We are {or I am} writing to remind you are overdue to have your next cervical screening test.

    Please call xxxx xxxx or visit us online to book an appointment for cervical screening at our clinic as soon as possible.

    Recent changes to the National Cervical Screening Program in Australia have resulted in the two-yearly Pap smear being replaced with a more accurate five yearly Cervical Screening Test. The renewed Program invites women aged 25-74 years to have a cervical screening test every five years, to detect for Human papillomavirus, which is the cause of nearly all cervical cancer cases. Earlier detection means a greater chance of successful treatment. Women who have never been screened or are under screened are at an increased risk of cervical cancer.

    We {or I} strongly recommend you undergo five yearly cervical screening - even if you don’t have any symptoms or family history for cervical cancer.

    More information about Program is available at www.cancerscreening.gov.au/cervical. And of course, you can also always visit your GP {or me} to discuss further about cervical cancer and screening.

    Yours sincerely
