Abstract
What is already known about this topic?: In 2015, only 18.9% of adult women underwent breast cancer screening in China.
What is added by this report?: Breast cancer screening coverage for women aged 20 years and above in China reached 22.3% during 2018-2019. Women with lower socioeconomic status had lower screening coverage. There were significant variations across the provincial-level administrative divisions.
What are the implications for public health practice?: The promotion of breast cancer screening requires the maintenance of national and local policies, as well as financial support for screening services. In addition, there is a need for the strengthening of health education and the improvement of accessibility to health services.
