Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Reuse of primary care EMR data is expanding despite concerns about data quality;. • We assessed quality of coded cancer diagnosis registry using the Netherlands Cancer Registry as a reference;. • Quality is suboptimal; re-users of coded data should be aware that 30% of cancer cases can be missed and up to 130% of cancer cases can be false-positive;. • The type of EMR system and the type of cancer influence quality of data. • Data reuse should only be performed by appropriately trained experts.
