Utah Admin. Code R384-100-1 - Purpose Statement
(1) The Cancer
Reporting Rule is adopted under authority of sections
26-1-30
and
26-5-3.
(2) Cancers constitute a leading cause of
morbidity and mortality in Utah and, therefore, pose an important risk to
public health. Through the routine reporting of cancer cases, trends in cancer
incidence and mortality can be monitored and prevention and control measures
evaluated.
(3) Cancer records are
managed for research and statistical purposes by the Utah Cancer Registry on
behalf of the Utah Department of Health. This Cancer Reporting Rule is adopted
to specify the reporting requirements for cases of cancer to the Registry. The
Utah Department of Health retains ownership and all rights to the
records.
