[Facility Name Here] Participates in ACR Lung Cancer Screening Registry
[City, State] (Sept. 1, 2015) — [Facility Name] is now participating in the
American College of Radiology (ACR) Lung Cancer Screening Registry.
Participation in the registry is voluntary and allows our imaging facility to
compare its lung cancer screening performance to other facilities nationwide.
Our doctors and staff can use these objective comparisons to advance our lung
cancer screening practice, target specific areas for improvement, implement
quality improvement programs, and improve patient care.
The ACR Lung Cancer Screening Registry (LCSR) is approved by the Centers
for Medicare & Medicaid Services to meet Medicare quality reporting
requirements. As part of the ACR National Radiology Data Registry (NRDR®),
the LCSR leads the effort in developing benchmarks and comparisons to help
imaging facilities improve quality of patient care.
The ACR, founded in 1924, is a professional medical society dedicated to
serving patients and society by empowering radiology professionals to advance
the practice, science, and professions of radiological care.
