Adult Primary Bone Sarcoma and Time to Treatment Initiation: An Analysis of the National Cancer Database.

Conclusions: TTI is associated with tumor, treatment, and socioeconomic and healthcare system characteristics. Transitions in care between institutions are responsible for the greatest increase in TTI. As TTI is more commonly used as a quality metric, physicians need to be aware of the causes for prolonged TTI, as we work to improve national delays in diagnosis and treatment initiation.
