Geographic and Institutional Patterns of Transoral Robotic Surgery in Head and Neck Cancer

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) is increasingly used for oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC), yet national patterns of TORS availability for Medicare beneficiaries are not well defined. We characterized hospital type, geographic distribution, and market concentration of TORS.
