MCCSP Overview• Established January 2000

• Program of Manitoba Health

• Managed by CancerCare Manitoba

• Public Health Act Regulation (2009 & 2001)

• 398,770 women age 18-69 (01-06-2008)

• 7 cytology laboratory partners

• 27 Colposcopists


MCCSP Program Guidelines

• Screening starts with sexual activity

• May stop at age 70

• Pap test annually x 3 • 3 Negative 2 years

• Unsatisfactory/Low Grade = repeat 6-9 months

• Persistent Unsat/Low Grade = colposcopy

• High Grade = colposcopy


MCCSP Registry is….• A confidential centralized database of all

cervical cancer screening test results

– Includes cytology, colposcopy, associated pathology

– Demographic information on all females 18-69– Regulated by the Cervical Cancer Screening

Registry Regulation 31/2009


Registry Infrastructure• Screening Reports

– Cytology (April 2001)– Colposcopy (January 2003)

• Standardized nomenclature and dictionaries• Manitoba Health Population (18-69)• Hysterectomy tariff codes• Cancer Registry – cervical cancers• In Process

– Population expansion (10-17)– Vaccination status (MIMS, DPIN/Health Admin– All Gynecological cancers


Information Systems• Computerized and automated

– Manage dataflow and information needs• Information comes from

– Laboratory test results– Colposcopy reports– Demographic data– Health care providers– Cancer Registry– Manitoba Health databases

• Gather and consolidate data• Relies on the cooperation of the health

care community


System Infrastructure (Literally)

• Database Server– Linux – Oracle 10

• EDI Server– M/S Windows NT

• LAN network HUB (10/100 Base T Ethernet)• IP Routers

– To external laboratories • Modem to modem communication

– To Manitoba Health WAN


Business Processes• Acquire report data (electronic and manual)• Enter/edit report data • Process reports• Edit/check and validate• Link data on individuals• Determine follow up events• Perform QA• Query individual’s screening histories


Business Processes Cont’d• Generate follow up reminders• Generate standard reports• Consolidate

– Cancer data– Hysterectomy data– Population data– Duplicates

• Perform data queries• Perform system administration• Provide electronic histories to cytology

laboratories


Electronic Transmissions from Laboratories


File Upload Process

• Population Upload– Data from Manitoba Health– Modem to modem connection– Data is FTPd to Cervical Cancer

Screening Server– ISIS software

• Population upload function– Match by PHIN, surname, DOB– Update patient demographics– Population Table


File Upload Process Cont’d

• Cancer Upload Process– Data from Cancer Registry system

• Maxon Database (Sybase)• SQL script

– Extracted data is FTPd to Cervical Cancer Screening Server

– ISIS software• Cancer Upload Function

– Match by PHIN, surname, DOB/ Cancer Number/Dx Date

– Updates patient cancer information– Cancer Table


Reports• ISIS software generated reports• CCSP reporting

– PowerBuilder programs• Extracted from Oracle Database

– Population based– RHA/FSA– Health Care Provider Reports

• Ad-hoc reports extracted to EXCEL (also Comma Separated Values, ASCII text, dBase 2/3, Data Interchange Format, Lotus)


Database Linkages• Cytology Laboratories (electronic

transmission)– PHIA compliant– Results– CPSM MANQAP Quality Standards

• Manitoba Health – Population– Administrative Databases– MIMS– DPIN

• Cancer Registry • Future Pathology Laboratory Linkage

through E-Path (AIM)


Support & Maintenance• CCMB Health Information Services

– Project management/application support and development– System administration– Database management– Hardware maintenance for Cytology laboratory systems– Electronic linkage (Transmed)

• MCCSP Team– Program management – Data entry– Quality assurance – Development of Requests for Change– User acceptance testing

• Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (AIM)– Upgrades– New developments– Support for Laboratory Data Interface Improvements at

laboratories


Support & Maintenance Cont’d

• ISIS Production Database• ISIS Production Patient Inquiry• ISIS Test Database• ISIS Test Patient Inquiry• Transmed • FTP Script• Database SQL Scripts• Cancer Extract SQL Script• PowerBuilder Reporting Application


Upgrades and Change Requests

• Annual support maintenance (AIM)• Quarterly submissions• Quarterly upgrades • Testing at AIM• Remote testing by AIM• User acceptance testing at MCCSP• Production implementation by CCMB HIS


Information Utilization• Operations• Surveillance/Monitoring• Recruitment and Promotion• Evaluation• Research


Operations• Opt out (21)• Screening Results to

– Women (empowers and educates)– Cytology laboratories (MANQAP

Reporting/QA)– Health care providers (improves clinical

management and educates on screening guidelines)

• Follow Up and Monitoring– High Grade Abnormal Results (January 2003)– Low Grade Abnormal Results (April 2006)– Letters to health care providers– Letters to women


Surveillance• Screening patterns by

– Age– RHA– FSA– Time

• Abnormal Pap test management and follow up• Workload

– Cytology– Colposcopy – Provider

• Impact on participation, abnormalities, cancer incidence


Recruitment and Promotion

• Definition of eligible population• Recruitment letters• Reminder letters• Target populations and

communities• Pap Test Learning Module


Evaluation• Reaching target populations

• Statistical reports

• Pap Clinic Week


Research

• Cancer incidence and screening participation

• HPV Pilot Study (2006)• HPV Surveillance (2008)• Pap test utilization and impact of

recruitment letters (2010)
