The Cancer Registries are responsible for managing all statistical information on cancer patients diagnosed and/or treated at Forum Health. The information is collected and maintained according to the American College of Surgeons (ACoS) Commission on Cancer (CoC) guidelines, and serves as a reference for physicians, administrators and students.
The Cancer Registries report their data to the National Cancer Data Base and the Ohio Department of Health's Ohio Cancer Information and Surveillance System (OCISS). This data is used in state and national comparisons. The Cancer Registries follow patients for a lifetime, which provides disease outcome and survival data comparisons. From this information, the Cancer CareCenters are able to determine and provide the needed education, screenings and support to our community.
