Basal and squamous cell carcinoma skin cancers accounted for almost one quarter of all cancer-related hospitalisations in 2010-11. The cost to the health system of these skin cancers alone is estimated to be more than $500 million annually. Surgical Audit is a surgical log designed for doctors who treat skin malignancies.
