Guide for use: | Record the code most accurately outlining the type of healthcare provider (individual, team or organisation) that is providing primary care to an adolescent or young adult (AYA) with cancer. If an individual has been treated by a specialist unit within a broader hospital, the unit type should be recorded. For example, if a person is treated by specialist AYA team within a paediatric hospital, this data element should be recorded as "specialist AYA centre or team", but if a person treated by a paediatric oncology team within a paediatric centre, this data element should be recorded as "paediatric cancer centre or hospital". This item is used to determine whether a patient has been primarily cared for by a specialist AYA healthcare provider, or by a healthcare provider that primarily treats adults or children. This is important in assessing whether an individual has received care that has been tailored for their age group. |
