It looks at outcomes from major institutions vs small regional hospitals. I suspect you already know what the outcomes are. When you consider that there are a large number of oral cancer patients that are treated as outpatients by ENT doctors that are not even looked at by this study, the situation is likely even worse. http://oralcancernews.org/wp/prereferral-head-and-neck-cancer-treatment/
