7 Screening Activity Report (SAR)

8 7 What is the SAR? A supplementary, electronic tool for primary care physicians Contains screening activity data for enrolled patients eligible for breast, cervical and colorectal cancer Released online twice per year (Spring and Fall) Purpose: To support physicians in improving their cancer screening rates and appropriate follow-ups Help providers better understand CCO s cancer screening guidelines

9 8 Components of the SAR i. Dashboard ii. Enrolled Patients Screening Summary iii. Breast: Enrolled Patients (50-74) iv. Cervical: Enrolled Patients (21-69) v. Colorectal: Enrolled Patients (50-74)

10 9 Dashboard A one-page summary of the number of patients that fall within each screening category These categories are mutually exclusive, therefore, a person is assigned one screening status per screening program Comparison of the physician screening rate relative to other physicians in the LHIN and province

11 10 Enrolled Patients Screening Summary Downloadable in PDF and Excel formats The Overall Screening Status represents someone s most urgent status across the three cancer screening programs. (i.e. If a patient is red in one screening program, this status will show red indicating that the patient requires at least one action)

12 11 How Does it Help? Updated more regularly than the TPSR Easily accessed, manipulated and searched Contains validated data from Cancer Care Ontario Allows you to create easy to read reports with all of your patients data

13 12 How Does it Help? Action required bnormal screen, follow-up needed /Invalid result, re-test required /Overdue for screening Due for screening in < 6 months Physician review required Colonoscopy in the last 10 years or flexible sigmoidoscopy in the last five years Review patient history: Patients whose screening result is unknown. Abnormal screen, follow-up underway or completed No screening action required: normal screen Enrolled and eligible individuals who are up-to-date with recommended screening

14 13 Who is eligible to receive a SAR? Patient Enrolment Model (PEM) primary care physicians: Must be PEM as of the date the report is generated Must have at least one enrolled patient who is eligible for at least one of the three screening programs as of the date the report is generated An ehealth Ontario ONE ID is required to access the report. Patient enrolment family practice models include: Comprehensive Care Model Family Health Organization Family Health Group Family Health Network

15 14 Registering For ONE ID Each physician and delegate is registered (face-to-face) and enrolled by an ehealth Ontario LRA using the ONE ID application With this they will receive: Unique ONE ID user-id and password Registration Confirmation from ehealth Ontario Welcome from CCO Secure access to the SAR PHYSICIANS In order to be eligible for ONE ID registration and enrollment for the purpose of accessing the SAR, a Physician must be: Sponsored by CCO Patient Enrollment Model (PEM) based Active with the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO) DELEGATES A delegate can be sponsored by more than one PEM physician A PEM physician can sponsor more than one delegate A delegate will not be able to access their delegating physician s SAR until the delegating physician is registered, enrolled, and appoints them as a delegate in ONE ID

16 15 Registering For ONE ID Amanda Hertel, Local Registration Authority, Waterloo-Wellington Location: Grand River Hospital, Kitchener Phone: x (preferred) amanda.hertel@grhosp.on.ca

17 Flexible Sigmoidoscopy Program in Waterloo Wellington Region Presented by: Debbie Reichert RN Coordinator Flexible Sigmoidoscopy at GRH Christine Couture RN Coordinator Flexible Sigmoidoscopy at SMGH

18 What is RNFS? Colon Cancer screening program in Ontario since 2007 MOHLTC partnered with CCO to develop pilot program Screening clinics at GRH and SMGH Nurse endoscopists perform screening sigmoidoscopy Polyps detected and biopsied Referrals for colonoscopy generated post procedure

19 Who is Eligible? Average Risk Individuals: Age Have not previously had a positive FOBT No first-degree family history of colorectal cancer No history of inflammatory bowel disease No recent history of colonic symptoms e.g. rectal bleeding No previous polyps (adenoma/large) or personal history of CRC Not on anticoagulant therapy

20 Why RNFS? 75% of people who are diagnosed with colon cancer are considered average risk CAG recommended RNFS be offered Decreases incidence and mortality rates of colon cancer Simple prep No sedation Low perforation rates Added screening option

21 RNFS Stats Screened 2100 patients in KW 22 percent of patients screened referred onto colonoscopy 10 cancers and over 100 advanced neoplasias found in our community Colon cancer detection rate is 5.1 per 1000 screened individuals in Ontario

22 How to Refer? Referrals from PCP or NP s Work with PCP s to provide programmatic screening and navigate patients to appropriate screening if not eligible Transitioning to be a part of CCC program
