In 14 health facilities in Addis Ababa and Oromia, over 90% of women with a positive visual inspection screening test were treated, but only about half came back for the recommended follow-up check.
Screening logbooks from 2017 to 2020 were reviewed in 14 health facilities of Addis Ababa and Oromia region, and women with a positive VIA (visual inspection with acetic acid) result were invited to a telephone interview about treatment and follow-up.
