Practitioners will be able to gauge their performance and improvement over time. A GP’s participation in a clinical audit should not be limited by their personal practice and that all the cases submitted to the audit should reflect their usual clinical practice. Our philosophy is that all lesions suspected of being a skin cancer are submitted to the audit based on clinical requirements not to satisfy acceptance for an educational activity. 2 in 3 Australians will be diagnosed with skin cancer by the age of 70. GPs have over 1 million patient consultations per year for skin cancer. Medicare records show there were 974,767 treatments for squamous and basal cell carcinoma skin cancers in 2015 – that’s more than 2,500 skin cancer treatments every day. 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. It has been designed to facilitate the easy recording of useful data at the time of treatment so that the treatment of skin cancers. This audit is targeted for clinicians typically those in primary care roles that are working with skin cancer; such as doctors, nurses, pathologists, dermatologists, and plastic surgeons.
