NAACCR XML: NaaccrData.registryType
Description
A computer-generated code that best describes the type of registry generating the record; used when cases are pooled from multiple registries (a hospital-based registry reporting to a state should have a “3” in this field).
Rationale
Facilitates tracking of data sources when data from multiple registries are pooled.
Codes
| 1 | Central registry (population-based) |
| 2 | Central registry or hospital consortium (not population-based) |
| 3 | Single hospital/freestanding center |
