Screening programs typically involve the following steps: 1. Eligibility Criteria: Determining who should be screened based on factors like age, sex, family history, and risk factors. 2. Screening Test: Administering the appropriate tests to eligible individuals. For example, a Pap smear for cervical cancer or an HbA1c test for diabetes. 3. Follow-Up: Individuals with positive or suspicious results are referred for further diagnostic testing and, if necessary, treatment.
