Smear Test Invitations & Results Are Going Digital!

From September, the NHS is making cervical screening communication quicker and simpler:

📱 Invitations

You’ll get your invite to book through the NHS App first

If you don’t have the app or don’t open it, a text message or letter will follow

✅ Results

– Negative results: sent through the NHS App

– No app? You’ll get a letter instead

– Didn’t read your app message within 72 hours? A letter will be sent as a back-up

– Abnormal results: always sent by letter only

➡ Tip: Download the NHS App and turn on notifications so you don’t miss your invite or result.
