Preventing Chronic Disease | Using the National Death Index to Identify Duplicate Cancer Incident Cases in Florida and New York, 1996"2005 - CDC
Cancer registries link incidence data to state death certificates to update vital status and identify missing cases; they also link these data to the National Death Index (NDI) to update vital status among patients who leave the state after their diagnosis. This study explored the use of information from NDI linkages to identify potential duplicate cancer cases registered in both Florida and New York.
