Andalusian Health Service Fails 2,000 Women in Breast Cancer Screening
The Andalusian Health Service (SAS) is facing a significant issue with its breast cancer screening marketplace. Due to an 'information failure', around 2,000 women have been affected and must undergo a second test. The Andalusian Health Council has acknowledged this as the cause of the problem.
The SAS has begun contacting each of these women individually to arrange for the retest. The affected women were initially told their lesions were not serious, but the government now admits these should have been monitored more closely. Some women have reported delays in their cancer detection, leading to untreated tumors for months or even years. The Junta de Andalucía assures that 98% of these cases are eventually diagnosed as benign.
The Association of Women with Breast Cancer (Amama) in Seville is contemplating a collective lawsuit to clarify responsibilities and ensure transparency. While there are no known collective lawsuits yet, the Andalusian government is urged to take responsibility and act with openness regarding this matter.
The Andalusian Health Service has confirmed that around 2,000 women must undergo a second test due to a failure in the early detection program for breast cancer. The Andalusian government is urged to assume responsibility and ensure transparency. Women's associations are considering legal action to clarify responsibilities.
