Improving AI/AN cancer surveillance data in the US
Melissa Jim, MPH will describe our IHS linkage and characterize patterns of cancer incidence among AI/AN by IHS Region. We will discuss sources of AI/AN cancer data. I will also explore the United States Cancer Statistics: Data Visualizations website to show how to find AI/AN cancer data by IHS Region. Accurate cancer data is crucial to develop public health strategies and programs to address cancer disparities.
