title: Women's health clinics.
abstract: A major challenge in the latter half of the 20th century is to make the benefits of medical advances available to those most in need of them. Papanicolaou screening for cervical cancer can best benefit the masses by making it a part of the comprehensive primary health care service offered by district clinics. The clientele, services offered, staff training, logistics (particularly with regard to laboratory support) and medical supervision of such a proposed service are considered.
