CHAMPS ODS: Advocates for Quality Data and the Cancer Registry Profession

CHAMPS ODS understands the importance and potential of quality cancer data and works to enhance and improve methodologies for standardization and advancing the integrity of cancer registries nationwide.

To do so, CHAMPS ODS continuously finds opportunities to

• Promote the importance of cancer data quality and accuracy.
• Advocate on behalf of the profession.
• Get involved with local, state and national associations and key players in quality.
• Perform ongoing research and development of specialized quality assurance tools and innovative programs.

What We're Doing

Because of CHAMPS ODS' unique affiliation with The Center for Health Affairs (CHA), Northeast Ohio's hospital trade association, we have been able to shed light on the challenges facing the cancer registry profession.  Click here to read CHA's brief message to Congress: Enhancing the Cancer Registry Profession
