Whether you are applying for the first time, or reapplying for Commission on Cancer (CoC) accreditation for your cancer registry, Kforce Healthcare can help guide you through the ever-changing process with our step-by-step guidance and support process:  

• Advise your administration and medical staff on the benefits of CoC approval during a site visit by one of our 15 National Compliance Managers
  
• Develop a cancer registry. The registry must have two  years of data as well as one year of successful patient follow up
  
• Form a Cancer Committee, establish a meeting schedule and appoint a member responsible for developing the agenda and recording minutes and other deliberations
  
• Develop a checklist to help monitor/track compliance and required documentation for all standards
  
• Appoint a Cancer Liaison physician
  
• Implement tools and best practices to assist your program with standards compliance
  
• Suggest alternative staff support solutions (adding FTE’s is not always the answer)
  
• Perform a Pre-Survey consultative visit
  
• Assist with navigation of the CoC datalinks Web portal
  
• Work with the CoC to define the timeline for survey
  
• Coordinate with the assigned physician surveyor
  
• Review survey results with administration 8-10 weeks following on-site survey
  
• Implement policies and procedures for ongoing management of an efficient cancer registry
  
• Assist with compliance on an on-going basis and prepare for re-survey every three years
