Staffing
1. On December 31, 2017, how many total FTE central cancer registry (CCR) staff positions were
funded? In this table, you may include positions outside the registry; ONLY IF the registry pays a
portion of the salary. Remember to use the calculation method above when computing partial
FTEs.

"Hospital cancer registry" is defined as one (single or joint institution) that collects data to be
used internally and that would continue to do so regardless of the central cancer registry
requirements to collect and report cancer data.
For those types of Hospitals and Pathology Labs which are not applicable to your
state/territory (e.g., IHS Hospitals), record zero (0) in "Number Required to Report" and
record zero (0) in "Number Compliant with Reporting". In these instances, "Number
Reporting Electronically" should also be recorded as zero (0).
