| description | Identifies the surgical procedure(s) performed in an effort to diagnose and/or stage disease at this facility. Used for cases diagnosed in 1996 and later. Earlier data may be converted into this field. See also RX Hosp--Surg Prim Site [670]. If central registries wish to study the procedures given at particular hospitals, the hospital-level fields must be used. The summary fields, conversely, combine information across all hospitals that provide for the tumor. Hospital-specific fields allow studies of detailed referral patterns and treatment by type of hospital. Knowing what part of the treatment was given at a particular hospital also helps resolve coding issues... NAACCR Data Standards and Data Dictionary Version 11 | ||||
