CoC
NAACCR XML: Tumor.followingRegistry
Description
Records the FIN of the registry responsible for following the patient.
Rationale
The number is essential to NCDB for monitoring data submissions, ensuring the accuracy of data, and identifying areas for special studies.
Instructions for Coding
CoC maintains the codes, including those for non-hospital sources of reporting.
For facilities with 7-digit FINs, consisting of a constant “6” followed by 6-digit facility-specific codes in the range of 6020009-6953290 that were assigned by CoC before January 1, 2001: Enter all FIN codes of this type as 3 zeroes, followed by the constant “6” and the 6-digit facility-specific codes.
For facilities with FINs greater than or equal to 10000000 that were assigned by CoC after January 1, 2001: Enter FIN codes of this type as 2 zeroes followed by the full 8-digit code. These sometimes are called CoC FIN 10-digit codes.
Note: This item is not supported by CoC as of January 1, 2010, (the respective NPI item is required).
