About Cancer Registrar

Cancer registrar professionals are data information specialists in hospital-based and central cancer registries throughout the United States. In addition to managing and reporting cancer data, registrars also serve other professional functions. The number of central cancer registries has increased dramatically since the Cancer Registries Amendment Act was passed in 1992, requiring health care facilities and physicians to report all cancer cases.

Cancer Registrar Post-Degree Certificate Program

This program focuses on how to capture data on the medical history, diagnosis, treatment and health status of cancer patients. Learn how this essential information helps researchers, health care providers and public health officials monitor and advance cancer treatments, conduct research, and improve cancer prevention and screening programs.
