AZ Cancer Registry

The Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) Indicator Based Information System for Public Health (IBIS-PH) system allows the public to query cancer rates, mortality rates and population estimates for Arizona. These public health data sets are intended to support evidenced-based decision making in Arizona to plan and improve service delivery, evaluate health care systems, and inform policy decisions. Other uses are not permissible. Available at http://healthdata.az.gov/query/module_selection/azcr/AzCRSelection.html
