Clinical practice guidelines for the management of patients with bladder cancer encompass strategies that minimize morbidity and improve survival. We sought to characterize practice patterns in patients with high-grade non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer in relation to established guidelines. We used Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER)-Medicare-linked data to identify subjects diagnosed with high-grade non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer in 1992–2002 who survived at least two years without undergoing definitive treatment (n=4,545). We used multilevel modeling to estimate the association and partitioned variation of patient sociodemographic, tumor, and provider characteristics with compliance measures. Of 4,545 subjects analyzed, only one received all the recommended measures. Approximately 42% of physicians have not performed on a single patient nested within their practice in a two-year period, at least one cystoscopy, cytology and a single instillation of immunotherapy. After 1997, only utilization of radiographic imaging (OR 1.19; 95% CI 1.03–1.37) and instillation of immunotherapy (OR 1.67; 95% CI 1.39–2.01) significantly increased. Surgeon-attributable variation for individual guideline measures (cystoscopy 25%; cytology 59%; radiographic imaging 10%; intravesical chemotherapy 45%; and intravesical immunotherapy 26%) contributes to this low-compliance rate. There is marked underuse of guideline-recommended care in this potentially curable cohort. Unexplained provider-level factors significantly contribute to this low-compliance rate. Future studies that identify barriers and modulators of provider-level adoption of guidelines are critical to improving care for patients with bladder cancer.
