OCM classified each episode by cancer type (e.g., prostate, lymphoma, breast). Cancer type was defined using the plurality of cancer diagnoses on qualifying evaluation and management (E&M) provider visits in the carrier file that occurred during the episode. The cancer type is used in categorizing episodes for reporting, monitoring, and risk adjustment purposes.
