Implementation of Synoptic Operative Reporting Standards

We are working together to meet the new accreditation requirements for Commission on Cancer Standards.


Goals

Our goals are:

  1. To ensure capture of the required elements while minimizing impact on surgeons and those who use operative reports for patient care.
  2. To provide resources to ILCC member hospitals to assist them with implementation.

Our initial focus is on the breast surgery standards (5.3 & 5.4), which will allow us to learn lessons. We will then expand to melanoma (5.5), colectomy (5.6), and possibly other types of cancer procedures.
