The 2006 WCHQ Cancer Screening event was a success! More than 100 medical directors, physicians, and QI staff attended the all-day quality sharing event to coincide with the launch of the results on www.wchq.org. Now that these baseline rates have been established, Wisconsin providers are partnering with the American Cancer Society and the Wisconsin Comprehensive Cancer Control to begin increasing the number of patients screened.
