Time to Count People with Metastatic Breast Cancer

focus and asked to consider the following: 1. W hat are the most pressing challenges or barriers that are preventing the routine collection/collation, reporting and use of cancer stage and recurrence data? 2. What are 4 or 5 actionable recommendations that could progress the routine collection/collation, reporting and use of cancer data in the future, with consideration given to opportunities and enablers, timing and sequencing, and accountability. After briefly acknowledging the challenges early in the roundtable, the focus was deliberately action driven, with facilitation redirecting the group towards change and next steps. A multidisciplinary approach to the groups was taken, with attendees from various specialities allocated across the groups to ensure a variety of perspectives in each group. A BCNA Consumer Representative, who was also part of the Project Steering Committee, was appointed to each of the 3 groups to contribute the consumer perspective. A BCNA staff member led discussion in each group, with support provided by the consumer representatives. Staff reported back to the larger group, drawing on knowledge gained from pre-roundtable stakeholder engagement, and time was provided for group discussion and deliberation. In the final session of the day, attendees were asked to consider the solutions identified in the workshop session, and to prioritise the solutions across the coming 10 years. Each attendee was also given the opportunity to verbally share reflections on their own commitments to change.
