The patient navigation program by Community Health Agent stood out with the best result, among the strategies: flexibility of goals considering viability; community engagement; team training; active search of the target population by Community Health Agent; request for mammography by physicians; actions integrated to women’s health; monitoring of mammography results, absent users, and population coverage by physician and nurse; and assessment of criteria for requesting screening mammography by means of an information system. The population coverage rate in the program ranged from 23% to 88%.

With the application of queuing theory model, this paper regards breast cancer screening in primary health care service center as a queuing system. With the help of the tide of sharing economy, it puts forward a joint screening scheme based on M/M/s model under shared mode, and compares it with M/M/1 model of non-shared mode, shortens patient waiting time by sharing medical resources, plans existing resources reasonably, and enhances the comprehensive strength of primary health care system so as to optimize the screening of breast cancer at the grass-roots level.
