Cancer stage documentation and accuracy: Single-center retrospective study on oropharyngeal cancers

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

EHR stage documentation rates were good for T and N stages, however poor for M and overall cancer stages. Staging accuracy was moderate-to-good when comparing staging from expert reviews to staging by Cancer Center Coders and clinicians. Quality improvement interventions may improve accuracy and frequency of HNC staging, thus improving patient outcomes.
