Chemotherapy treatment at facility.YYY Cancer

Chemotherapy Rx at facility Cancer

Definition

  • Defines the type of chemotherapy the patient received as a part of the initial treatment for the reportable tumor at the reporting facility or the reason chemotherapy was not given. If central registries wish to study the treatment given at particular hospitals, the hospital-level treatment fields must be used. The summary treatment fields, conversely, combine information across all hospitals that provide first course of treatment for the tumor. Hospital-specific fields allow studies of detailed referral patterns and treatment by type of hospital. Knowing what part of the treatment was given at a particular hospital also helps resolve coding issues... NAACCR Data Standards and Data Dictionary Version 11
