Screening includes mammography (x-rays of breast tissue). Screening results are sent to both the woman and her doctor.

Patients who receive normal results are automatically recalled for their next screening appointment through a reminder letter from Cancer Care Ontario. Patients who receive abnormal results are referred to their doctor for further investigation, or are referred directly for additional tests.

Works in conjunction with Breast Assessment Program to serve patients whom require a referral.

The OBSP is administered by Cancer Care Ontario through its regional cancer centres.
