Our experience implementing the National Cancer Information System (NCIS) in Galway University Hospitals

NCIS is managed by the NCCP. Galway University Hospitals (GUH) become involved during the tendering and procurement phase.

The National Cancer Information System (NCIS) is managed by the National Cancer Control Program (NCCP). Galway University Hospitals (GUH) become involved during the tendering and procurement phase. GUH was represented on the national working group by nurses, pharmacists and physicians. The vision was and remains to create a longitudinal record of cancer care for citizens of Ireland attending 26 hospital sites in Ireland.

NCIS is in-fact two software systems designed to transfer information back and forth to one another.
