Saint Agnes Medical Center has proudly maintained a American College of Surgeons’ Commission
on Cancer (CoC) approved cancer program since 1986, providing service to our community,
cancer patients and their families as well as physicians, researchers and the State of California
Cancer Registry.
As part of our CoC accredited status we also participate in the National Cancer Data Base (NCDB)
which offers us the opportunity to compare our cancer program’s performance to nationally
recognized standards of care. The Commission on Cancer accountability and quality improvement
measures include the following:
Breast measures:
– BCS (surveillance measure rating not included): Breast conservation surgery rate for women
with AJCC clinical stage 0, I, or II breast cancer.
– BCSRT: Radiation therapy is administered within 1 year (365 days) of diagnosis for women
under age 70 receiving breast conserving surgery for breast cancer.
– MASTRT: Radiation therapy is considered or administered following any mastectomy within
1 year (365 days) of diagnosis of breast cancer with =/> 4 positive regional lymph nodes.
– MAC: Combination chemotherapy is considered or administered within 4 months (120 days)
of diagnosis for women under age 70 with AJCC T1cN0M0, or stage IB – III hormone
receptor negative breast cancer.
– HT: Tamoxifen or third generation aromatase inhibitor is considered or administered within 1
year (365 days) of diagnosis for women with AJCC T1cN0M0, or stage IB - III hormone
receptor positive breast cancer.
– nBx: Image or palpation guided needle biopsy (core of FNA) is performed to establish the
diagnosis of breast cancer.
Colon measures
– ACT: Adjuvant chemotherapy is considered or administered within 4 months (120 days) of
diagnosis for patients under age of 80 with AJCC Stage III (lymph node positive) colon
cancer.
– 12RLN: At least 12 regional lymph nodes are removed and pathologically examined for
resected colon cancer.

Rectum measure:
– RECRT (surveillance measure rating not included): Radiation therapy is considered or
administered within 6 months (180 days) of diagnosis for patients under age 80 with clinical
or pathologic AJCC T4N0M0 or Stage III receiving surgical resection for rectal cancer.
Gastric measure:
– G15RLN: At least 15 regional lymph nodes are removed and pathologically examined for
resected gastric cancer.
Non-Small Cell Lung measures:
– 10RLN (surveillance measure rating not included): At least 10 regional lymph nodes are
removed and pathologically examined for AJCC stage IA, IB, IIA, and IIB resected NSCLC.
– LCT: Systemic chemotherapy is administered within 4 months to day preoperatively or day
of surgery to 6 months postoperatively, or it is considered for surgically resected cases with
pathologic, lymph node-positive (pN1) and (pN2) NSCLC.
Through our unrelenting pursuit of excellence Saint Agnes Medical Center continuously
evaluates our performance to insures that we provide the highest quality patient care.
As a result, since the inception of NCDB Cancer Program Performance Ratings (CP3R) our
designated Comprehensive Community Cancer Program (CCCP) has met and/or exceeded
compliance for each of these important quality measures.
For your inspection, the following slide display our CoC performance ratings.
