Sorry, but we do not have code for these indicators in the Github codeshare library, and don't currently have code prepared for these indicators in Stata, SPSS or R. However, the indicators are fairly simple and can be constructed relatively easily. First select the individual women's dataset (IR file), then select the cases for the appropriate denominator, and then tabulate the data for the breast and cervical cancer indicators.
