Abstract

The authors studied the use of routinely available data by four cancer networks in England. Data use was not well developed, but beneficial structures included commitment by a full-time information officer, enthusiasm of a clinician with professed interest in multiple sources of information, and good links with external networks and clinical service groups. Policy-makers should support organizations where data are valued and integrated into performance.
