Reporting Sources
Each Idaho hospital, out-patient surgery center, and pathology laboratory is responsible for the complete ascertainment of all data on cancer diagnoses and
treatments provided in its facility within six months of diagnosis.
Sources for identifying eligible cases include hospitals, out-patient surgery centers, private pathology laboratories, free-standing radiation centers, physicians,
death certificates, and other state cancer registries that
have an Idaho resident diagnosed and/or treated for cancer.
When a cancer case is reported from more than one source the information is consolidated into one record.
For Cancer Registrars
Primary site, behavior, grade, and histology are coded according to the International Classification of Disease for Oncology.
Data items are coded following the rules of the North American Association of Central Cancer Registries (NAACCR),
the National Cancer Institute’s SEER program, and the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer.
The standard format documents address data items, data item definitions, and transmission specifications.
For Pathology Laboratories
