*Referrals will be triaged according to risk and alignment with guidelines (e.g. referrals for high grade cervical dysplasia and those with a positive FIT will be prioritized). Non-urgent and elective referrals may be deferred or rejected based on capacity. Individual providers may need to adjust their screening and diagnostic service capacity as-needed to respond to site-specific pressures.
