Answer 3

It's closest meaning is "proyecciones de la salud". I found this answer by clicking on translate, a blue tab at the top of the screen. Type in any phrase, and there will be three dictionaries' translations.

proyección is the screening of a movie. the conotation being It is projected onto a screen. - deedeegill72, Mar 28, 2014

Answer 4

I have difficulty with translating "screening" also. I work in a school for children with special needs. There is a big difference between a screening and an evaluation. A screening is a brief test we use only to see if an evaluation is needed, and what area of development needs to be evaluated. I have used "prueba" or "examen" for screening and of "evaluación" for evaluation. since I am not sure if prueba is the best choice I look forward to seeing what answers you get from native speakers. Good luck!
