Surgical Audit Program

Surgical Pathology Program

Sullivan Nicolaides Pathology provides the Surgical Audit Program for doctors who wish to audit their clinical practice associated with skin cancer. The programme is available to any doctor who refers patients for skin pathology to Sullivan Nicolaides Pathology. It is an independent programme that was created, and continues to be enhanced, in consultation with the Skin Cancer College of Australia and New Zealand (SCCANZ) to ensure that their members and other doctors who chose to, have the ability to release data to the SCCANZ Research Project.

Eligible general practitioners with a current RACGP QA&CPD number may attain 40 Category 1 points by participating in either the SNP or SCCANZ clinical audit.

Should a doctor be interested in achieving the category 1 points, they can provide their QA&CPD number during registration.
The SNP Surgical Audit Program is also accredited by ACRRM.

Registration
Participants are required to register for the programme.

During registration, you may nominate to release de-identified data to the SCCANZ, for the purpose of including the data in the SCCANZ Audit Research Project. Audit participants electing to do this will need to read the SCCANZ Audit Research Project Consent Information Sheet.  If you agree with the details outlined in the information document, the SCCANZ Surgical Audit Research Project Consent Form must be signed and returned to SNP. A copy will be forwarded to the SCCANZ research coordinator.

Please contact your SNP Territory Manager or Client Service Officer to assist you with registration on 1300 SNPATH (1300 767 284)
