How does a facility replace a Cancer Liaison Physician?
A. If the facility would like to replace the currently appointed Cancer Liaison Physician, a discussion must be held with the cancer committee and approval obtained from the cancer committee chair. Upon recommendation of a candidate or interested party, complete the application found on the Commission on Cancer Web site at http://www.facs.org/cancer/coc/liaison.html. Once the CoC approves the application, the facility must modify the Cancer Liaison Physician’s contact information in FIPS.
