Timely Administration post-TURBT (TApT) National Quality Improvement Project

Timely Administration post-TURBT is a yearlong Quality Improvement project sponsored by the ACS Cancer programs beginning February 2026. The project will aid and assist programs in identifying areas for improvement in compliance related to NCDB quality measure BLCT1. For patients with low grade Ta bladder cancer undergoing transurethral resection of bladder tumor, intravesical chemotherapy is initiated within 24 hours of the procedure or recommended.

As a participant, you will have the opportunity to learn from national expert and peer programs from around the country and receive extensive support form CoC and ACS Cancer programs for your local QI efforts.

The goal of this project is to:

  • Improve the quality of cancer care and patient outcomes by accomplishing delivery of intravesical chemotherapy within 24 hours of the procedure.
  • Assist programs to identify root cause challenges in achieving compliance.
  • Develop a standardized way for programs to assess and monitor their compliance.
  • Identify and implement successful and sustainable solutions.
  • Support participating programs to achieve greater than 20% increase of individual baseline.
