Alberta Health provides Screening Programs with the names and addresses of eligible Albertans so that we can send you letters about cancer screening. All of this is strictly governed by the Health Information Act to ensure your privacy. To find out more about eligibility and the types of letters you will receive, click here.

If you’ve recently moved or changed your name, see how to change your information.

If you would prefer not to receive letters from Screening Programs, learn about program participation options. You can be confident that your information is kept secure, private and confidential at all times. Screening Programs staff have access only to your cancer screening results and follow-up test results – they do not access any of your other health information. Just like your doctor or other healthcare providers, all of the staff working in Screening Programs are bound by the Health Information Act. (https://www.alberta.ca/health-information-act.aspx)
