5 2013 ANNUAL REPORT Northside Medical Center Cancer Committee Chairman s 2013 Annual Report As Chairman of the Cancer Committee, I am happy to report that Valley Care Health System has continued to excel in cancer care management during Valley Care Health System s cancer program remains accredited by the Commission on Cancer of the American College of Surgeons. Only 25% of hospitals in the United States have cancer programs approved by the Commission on Cancer and 80% of newly diagnosed cancer patients are treated at these institutions. Approval by the Commission on Cancer is only given to those facilities that are voluntarily committed to providing the highest level of quality cancer care and undergo a rigorous evaluation process and review of their performance. The Cancer Registry of Forum Health Northside Medical Center accessioned 315 analytic cancer cases in Our hospital system primarily serves a three-county region and over 99% of the new cancer patients reside in this area which includes Mahoning, Trumbull and Columbiana counties. The percentage of female cancer patients registered in 2012 at Northside Medical Center was 57%. This is substantially higher than the national average of 48% female and 52% male cancer patients as reported by the American Cancer Society statistics. There are a few noteworthy differences between state and national statistics and those of Valley Care Health System. Analytic breast cancer cases comprise 23% of our total cancer cases at Northside Medical Center; this is substantially higher than the 14% seen nationwide. This may be due to the highly effective Breast Cancer Program which is one of the busiest programs for screening and diagnostic mammography in the area. Cancer education has also remained a priority at Valley Care Health System. In 2012, our Cancer Committee sponsored our 31 th Annual Cancer Symposium this year focusing on lung cancer. These cancer symposiums are directed toward physicians and other healthcare professionals and bring presentations by nationally known speakers covering new and emerging concepts in the treatment and diagnosis of cancer. Other educational endeavors include a weekly Tumor Conference, which is a multidisciplinary conference where a number of physicians, including surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists, diagnostic radiologists and primary care physicians discuss the diagnosis and management of specific cases of cancer.

All cases are discussed with representatives from medical and radiation oncology, surgery, pathology, radiology and other medical specialties. Both current and retrospective cases are discussed, and Category 1 CME hours are granted to medical staff for attendance. The Cancer Committee also oversees continuing medical education every year.
