What is a population-based cancer control model?
created by bccf on May 24, 2011
The BC Cancer Agency’s population-based cancer control model ensures that care and treatment standards and protocols are the same across the province, for every British Columbian. Treating every cancer patient in BC the same also means that the BC Cancer Agency has developed a comprehensive database of clinical data for the past 50 years that provides a historic and ongoing record of treatments and outcomes. This database has become an invaluable tool for research at the BC Cancer Agency and is shared with other cancer treatment programs across Canada and globally.
