Cancer Registry
Every patient who is diagnosed with cancer or who receives cancer treatment is entered into a cancer registry database. This database includes information specific to the cancer: non-identifying demographic information, cancer specifics, treatment information, and lifetime follow-up.
We submit this information to the Ohio Cancer Surveillance System of the Ohio Department of Health and to the National Cancer Data Base of the Commission on Cancer. National and state published statistics and cancer reports are compiled with data for all facilities submitting information to these organizations. All information submitted follows reporting requirements of the Ohio Revised Code regulations, accreditation requirements, and HIPAA compliance.
