View Award Description

Implementing, Enhancing, and Sustaining the Mississippi Cancer Registry - The mission of the Mississippi Cancer Registry (MCR) is to collect complete and high quality cancer incidence data to guide program planning and evaluation statewide, monitor cancer trends in geographic areas and in specific populations, provide data for research and public health, and educate the general public and policy makers on the burden of cancer in Mississippi. Each year, the MCR submits data to the National Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR) for evaluation and inclusion in national cancer incidence. The MCR consistently meets the National Data Quality Standards from the CDC. Aggregate data is available by site, race, sex, stage for screenable cancers, and geographic area through an interactive web site for public use. Information on lifestyle-related cancers is also on the MCR web site. The goal of the MCR is to continue to improve the completeness, timeliness, quality, availability and utility of the incidence data collected. To accomplish this goal, the MCR will increase the proportion of physician offices, pathology laboratories, hospitals and clinics that diagnose and treat cancer who report timely data to the MCR in an electronic format. This will be accomplished through utilizing web-based abstracting software and electronic medical and laboratory records. The MCR will also provide comprehensive education to both MCR staff and to cancer reporters to ensure quality data. Education will be geared toward addressing changes in coding rules, common coding errors, increasing the number of certified tumor registrars in Mississippi, and meeting the needs of the new abstractors in the state. Lastly, the MCR will make the data available to the public stakeholders across the state. The MCR will foster collaborative relationships with partners in cancer control efforts. Partnerships with other state cancer registries will promote the sharing of ideas and best practices, as well as, exchange of data to ensure complete collection of cancer in Mississippi residents. The MCR will work with the Mississippi State Department of Health (MSDH) Vital Records and Statistics to increase completeness of incidence data through matching the mortality data and to increase the availability of aggregate cancer mortality data. The MCR will also partner with MSDH to improve the quality of incidence data through matching with the hospital discharge data and will explore linkages with immunization. Partnering with the Mississippi Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program will provide an opportunity to improve the quality of their data and the completeness of incidence data. The MCR will also partner with the Mississippi Partnership for Comprehensive Cancer Control and other chronic disease programs to increase the utilization of cancer incidence data in statewide efforts around prevention of chronic diseases, cancer control and research. The Mississippi Cancer Registry will actively participate in the Leadership Team for addressing the cancer burden in Mississippi. The Advisory Committee, comprised of physicians and other statewide partners will serve as a technical advisor to the MCR and a champion for the use of the MCR data throughout the state.
