Screening tests are applied to large populations with a low prevalence of disease. Therefore, it is critical to minimize false positives to avoid causing widespread anxiety and triggering costly, invasive follow-up procedures in healthy people. High specificity ensures that a positive test is very likely to be a true positive. High sensitivity is also important, but without high specificity, a screening program can do more harm than good.
