NAACCR XML: Patient.addrCurrentCity

Alternate Names
   City/Town--Current (CoC)
Description
Name of city of the patient’s current usual residence. If the patient has multiple tumors, the current city of residence should be the same for all tumors.
Rationale
"Current address" can be used to measure the regional "cancer burden" (cost, medical care needs), especially in major retirement regions. Sometimes central registries carry out follow-up by contacting the patients by a letter or telephone calls to ascertain their vital status. The most current reported address and telephone number are needed. This information is also useful for conducting interview studies.
