Enhancement of Cancer Registry Databases with Two Key Hospital Discharge Data Elements: POA and Discharge Status

Date

As part of the NAACCR Semantic - Discharge Data Small Group and CDC NPCR work with the National Association of Health Data Organizations (NAHDO), a webinar presentation will be held on Friday December 16th at 3pm ET on the potential of enhancing cancer registry data with two key data elements from discharge data; Present On Admission (POA) and Discharge Status.
The webinar will highlight how these elements are being collected and used by discharge data systems as well as a "hypothetical" use case of how cancer registries could utilize these elements for their purposes.
