Proposed Project
National Program of Cancer Registries Annual Program Evaluation
Instrument (NPCR-APEI)--New--National Center for Chronic Disease
Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC is responsible for administering and monitoring the National
Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR). As of 1999, CDC supported 45
states, 3 territories, and the District of Columbia for population-
based cancer registries. (The 5 remaining states receive federal
funding for the operations of cancer registries through the National
Cancer Institute.) The central cancer registries (CCR), the foundation
of cancer prevention and control, provide information from the
reporting jurisdictions and insure that quality and timely cancer
surveillance data are available to CDC.
The NPCR Annual Program Evaluation Instrument (NPCR-APEI) is needed
in order to receive, process, evaluate, aggregate and disseminate NPCR
program information collected by NPCR registries and reported to CDC.
Data collected with this instrument will be used by the NPCR to
evaluate various attributes of the registries funded by NPCR, monitor
NPCR registries' progress towards program standards and objectives, and
compare an individual NPCR registry's progress towards standards with
national program standards as well as those of SEER and NAACCR. There
are no costs to respondents except their time to participate in the
survey. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 74.
