4 Cancer Committee Chair s Report The Institute of Medicine (IOM) 2013 Report recommends that supportive oncology care start at cancer diagnosis; the Commission on Cancer (CoC) Standard 3.2 requires distress screening and indicated action. The Supportive Oncology Collaborative, collaborative of 100+ clinicians funded by The Coleman Foundation, developed a patient-centric screening tool (CSOC-ST) adapted from ASCO Distress, NCCN Distress Problem List, IOM report and CoC standards, and other validated sub-tools. Mount Sinai Hospital s division of oncology has collaborated with seven other institutions in Chicago to participate in an ongoing collaborative to improve supportive care in oncology. The following are some of the Cancer Program s accomplishments: Enhancement of the patient experience with the establishment of the supportive oncology clinic comprising of a team of providers such as an oncology pharmacist, nurse navigator, social worker, financial counselor and behavioral therapy technician. Through our relationship with the Coleman Foundation we were part of the development of a tool to measure psychosocial distress in our patients in order to provide appropriate resources for our patients. Expansion of our Survivorship Program to include all new early stage cancer patients diagnosed at our institution. Expanded inpatient palliative care and hospice services for our patients to meet and support their needs at a time when they are most vulnerable. Expansion of the multidisciplinary tumor board to include head and neck cancer and neuroncology, which gives physicians the ability to collaborate and discuss the best evidence-based treatment options. Continued community commitment through providing health fairs and screenings for head and neck cancer at the Mexican Consulate, as well as additional events that staff participated in during the year. Pam Khosla, MD Chief, Department of Oncology/Hematology Cancer Committee Chair 4

5 From The Cancer Program Administrator Sinai s Cancer Program Annual Report has a slightly different look this year. We have re-designed the annual report to be a summary of our accomplishments and outcomes. To that end, this annual report is more specifically designed to meet Standard 1.12, Public Reporting of Outcomes of the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer s (CoC) accreditation standards. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the Commission on Cancer Oncology Committee to provide a report of patient or program outcomes to the public. We also report on efforts to form partnerships to help meet the needs of the community we serve within our geographical area. Standard 4.1 Prevention Programs Standard 4.2 Screening Programs Standard 3.3 Survivorship Standard 4.6 Monitoring Compliance with Evidence-Based Guidelines Lastly, we continue to form partnerships in order to meet the many needs of the community we serve within our geographical area. While Standard 1.12 only requires that we report on one area, the Oncology Committee decided it was important to publicly show our performance results in several areas. Sameer Shah, PharmD, MHA.

In 2016, Sinai s research program had over 25 cancer trials available for our patients (most of any community hospital in Chicago). We provided important education opportunity to students, residents and staff to learn about the role research plays in fostering innovation in modern medicine and cancer care. We aim to continue its role as part of the Cancer Moonshot initiative, originally launched by President Obama. 10

11 Oncology Nursing The oncology nurses at Mount Sinai Hospital s Cancer Center provide care to cancer patients of low income many of whom need supportive services. Care is provided in both outpatient and inpatient acute care settings. Nurses go through specialized education and training in general cancer diagnoses, the safe handling and administration of chemotherapy, radiation and many other diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Certification in chemotherapy and biotherapy occurs when nurses meet specific eligibility requirements and pass a rigorous multiple-choice examination, to evaluate their specialized knowledge, skills and experience. The certification process establishes minimum competency standards and recognizes those who have met these standards. Patients can feel confident in their Caregivers when they receive care from a certified nurse. Certification is required by the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer. Outcome: This past year, three additional nurses earned their certification in oncology. Overall, 100-percent of our 34 nurses are certified in chemotherapy and biotherapy administration, thereby giving us commendation level for this standard during our most recent Commission on Cancer survey in

12 Prevention and Screening Programs Standard 4.1 Prevention Programs Standard 4.1 states Each year, the cancer committee provides at least one cancer prevention program that is targeted to meet the needs of the community and should be designed to reduce the incidence of a specific cancer type. This year, the prevention programs focused on presentations regarding breast and colon cancer at the Univision Health Fair in June 2016, and head and neck cancer at the Mexican Consulate of Chicago in April Standard 4.2 Screening Programs Standard 4.2 states Each year, the cancer committee provides at least one cancer screening program that is targeted to decreasing the number of patients with late stage disease. In 2016 screening programs focused on two cancers: breast and head and neck cancers. The events were held in the community and referrals to Mount Sinai Hospital. Breast Cancer. The Helping Her Live program in 2016 provided education to 520 participants Outcome:114 free mammograms were provided to women who met criteria. Head and Neck screening was performed at the Mexican Consulate located in the Near West Side neighborhood. Outcome: Two participants were referred to Sinai Medical Group for further testing. 12

13 Accountability and Quality Improvement Measures The Cancer Registry at Mount Sinai Hospital s Cancer Center submits data annually to the National Cancer Data Base (NCDB). The data elements required for submission to NCDB are utilized by the Commission on Cancer in evaluating and assessing quality measures that have been developed to ensure patient-centered treatment outcomes. The quality measures are endorsed by the NQF (National Quality Forum). Breast Cancer Accountability Measure Radiation is administered within 1 year (365 days) of diagnosis for women under the age of 70 receiving breast conservation surgery for breast cancer Mount Sinai Hospital 100% State of Illinois 93.1% All CoC Commission on Cancer Approved Programs 90.9% Accountability Measure Tamoxifen or third generation aromatase inhibitor is recommended or administered within 1 year (365 days) of diagnosis for women with AJCC T1c or stage IB-III hormone receptor positive breast cancer Mount Sinai Hospital 100% State of Illinois 95.6% All CoC Commission on Cancer Approved Programs 91.1% Neil Seif, MD Radiation Oncologist 13

14 Colon Cancer Accountability Measure At least 12 regional lymph nodes are removed and pathologically examined for resected colon cancer Mount Sinai Hospital 100% State of Illinois 91.4% All CoC Commission on Cancer Approved Programs 91.2% Accountability Measure Adjuvant chemotherapy is recommended, or administered within 4 months (120 days) of diagnosis for patients under the age of 80 with AJCC stage III (lymph node positive) colon cancer Mount Sinai Hospital 100% State of Illinois 90.7% All CoC Commission on Cancer Approved Programs 89% The CoC requires the Cancer Committee to review the quality of patient care using CoC quality reporting tools appropriate to the patients who are treated by the program each year. The most recent information from 2015 shows that Mount Sinai Hospital has exceeded all local and national bench marks for breast and colon cancer care for the above performance. 14

15 Accountability and Quality Improvement Measures (continued) Compliance with NCCN Guidelines In 2016, a chart audit was conducted on non small cell lung cancer patients who were diagnosed in A total of 50 patients were reviewed according to the National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines in the treatment of lung cancer. Results of Data A random sample of 10% of lung patient s from 2016 were assessed to determine if treatment met the NCCN guidelines for care of patients with NSCLC. The patients chosen were stage IV, stage III and stage II. An audit tool was developed and approved by Dr. Kassem based on the NCCN NSCLC version /16/2016. Based on the following results patients with stage I-IV lung cancer were managed appropriately according to NCCN guidelines. 15

16 Survivorship Program One of a patient s biggest fears after treatment is the fear of reoccurrence of their disease. To help our patients deal with their concerns and to improve patient compliance with follow up and screenings after treatment, we have developed the Cancer Survivorship Program. This program offers patients educational, clinical, spiritual and psychosocial support as they begin their journey as a cancer survivor. To meet their needs, all patients are scheduled a visit in the Survivorship clinic six months after completing treatment. From that point, patient nurse navigators, social worker, dietitian, nurse practitioner and other professionals remain available to address any concerns related to diagnosis and treatment and the impact they may have on one s life.

17 Support Programs The Cancer Center at Mount Sinai Hospital is a resource center for all oncology patients, their families and the community. In conjunction with treatment modalities, we strive to meet the physical, emotional, social and spiritual needs of each person who relies on us for care. Our goal is to empower and support patients and families. Support programs help individuals cope with cancer and manage lifestyle changes and challenges. Support and networking with the American Cancer Society, Gilda s Club and the Coleman Foundation allows us to provide services to our patients to meet their emotional, social and spiritual needs. 17
