IGF::OT::IGF CORE INFRASTRUCTURE SUPPORT FOR SURVEILLANCE, EPIDEMIOLOGY, AND END RESULTS (SEER)

这项任务单修改的目的是支持一项试点测试，以从医疗索赔聚合器(也称为信息交换所)无限系统获取医疗索赔数据。医疗索赔聚合器接收、编辑和提交来自医疗实践的保险索赔。通过医疗索赔汇总器工作将确保以最有效和最具成本效益的方式进行这项试点测试，因为所需的肿瘤学实践将能够直接通过汇总器招募，一旦招募，汇总器将直接提交其索赔数据。此外，由于法律要求肿瘤学实践提交新诊断癌症病例的数据，希望索赔聚合器提交数据的选择将被证明是有吸引力的。这项试点的目标是评估利用医疗索赔数据获取纵向治疗数据的可行性。

The aim of this Task Order modification is to support a pilot test to obtain medical claims data from Unlimited System, a medical claims aggregator (also referred to as a clearinghouse). Medical claims aggregators receive, edits, and submit insurance claims from medical practices. Working through a medical claims aggregator will ensure that this pilot test is conducted in the most efficient and cost effective manner because the desired oncology practice will be able to be recruited directly through the aggregator and once recruited the aggregator will directly submit their claims data. Also, since oncology practices are required to by law to submit data on newly diagnosed cases of cancer it is hoped that the option of claims aggregator submitted data will prove appealing. The goal of this pilot is to evaluate the feasibility of utilizing medical claims data to obtain longitudinal treatment data.
