January is Cervical Health Awareness Month. Cervical cancer is preventable with vaccination and appropriate screening, so it is important that we raise awareness of the preventive care that supports cervical health. The CDC lists two tests to help prevent cervical cancer or to find it early: Pap smears and HPV tests. A Pap Smear looks for cell changes on the cervix that might become cervical cancer if not treated, while the HPV test looks for the virus that can cause these cell changes. Medicare Part B covers these tests if you meet the eligibility requirements. Schedule your preventive visit today and take charge of your cervical health!
