Cancer Program Practice Profile Reports (CP3R)
The Web-based Cancer Program Practice Profile Reports (CP3R) offer local providers comparative information to assess adherence to and consideration of standard of care therapies for major cancers. This application seeks to implement concepts of continuous practice improvement to improve quality of patient care at the local level and permits hospitals to compare their care for these patients relative to that of other providers. The aim is to empower clinicians, administrators and other staff to work cooperatively and collaboratively to identify problems in practice and delivery, and to implement best practices that will diminish disparities in care across CoC-Approved cancer programs.

Electronic Quality Improvement Packets (e-QuIP)
The Web-based Electronic Quality Improvement Packets (e-QuIP) provide individual-level case summary reports for cancers diagnosed in 2003 and 2004, as transmitted to the NCDB by each CoC-Approved Program cancer registry. These packets are designed to enable facilities to review and address data completeness in preparation for the release of future CP3R initiatives that measure concordance with standard of care guidelines.
E-QuIPs are designed to specifically promote quality improvement activities that can assist facilities in the fulfillment of the CoC Approvals Standards requirements:
- 2.11 - analysis of processes of care leading to patient outcomes;
- 8.1 – complete and document studies that measure quality and outcomes;
- 8.2 – documented implementation of two improvements that directly affect cancer patient care.
