CNExT Registry

CNExT Registry is our core Windows registry product, and the basis for our expanded Enterprise, Multi-Hospital and Cancer Alert System products. CNExT Registry offers power and flexibility for hospitals and independent registrars, and is available in two packages to suit the diverse needs of our customers.

The Standard Registry package is designed for programs seeking ACoS accreditation and needing software that complies with the latest ACoS standards, including the recommended data set. This package also includes a fully-functional, strategy-based follow-up system, designed with input from registrars to automate the monthly follow-up process as much as possible.

Our State Reporting package is designed for smaller facilities or field abstractors wishing to report and edit their cancer data electronically, but not seeking ACoS accreditation. It does not include PCE studies, follow-up and some fields only required by the College of Surgeons. The State Reporting package is often used by facilities that are not pursuing ACoS approval and just need to report cases to the state. This package is also popular with central registries that provide abstracting services to small facilities.
