- Identify patients due for monthly follow-up, obtain survival status for special studies, and send follow-up correspondence to physicians, patients, and healthcare institutions as needed.
- Coordinate Oncology (Tumor Board) conferences by identifying potential cases, notifying appropriate Medical Staff and departments, preparing agendas, distributing evaluations, recording attendance, maintaining CME credit listings, and documenting and transcribing meeting minutes.
- Serve as a member of the Cancer Committee, assist with departmental and committee meeting notices, and support data collection for Patient Care Evaluation Studies, audits, and other special studies requested by the Medical Staff.
