Background Delayed access to cancer care has been associated with childhood cancer death. Improving timely access to cancer care is the first important step in the cancer treatment journey. We introduced an electronic referral system (e‐RS) to improve timely access to cancer care. This study aimed to assess the impact of implementing an e‐RS on timely access to cancer care. Methods A retrospective cross‐sectional study of pediatric oncology patients selected through a consecutive nonprobability sampling technique was performed to determine the turnaround time (TAT) of children with cancer diagnosed 12 months before and after implementation of the e‐RS. TAT was defined as time in hours from referral to approval for admission. Results Of the 326 pediatric oncology patients diagnosed between January 2014 and December 2015, 59.9% were male and 40.1% were female. Median age for both sexes was 5.0 years (interquartile range IQR: 2.5‐9.0 years). Among these, 98.2% were Saudi nationals. Hematological malignancies accounted for 50.6% of referrals and 16.6% had lymphoma. The median TAT of the manual referral system (m‐RS) and e‐RS was 18 h (IQR: 2‐25 h) and 2 h (IQR: 1‐16 h; P = .0001), median length of hospital stay during first admission was 11 days versus 9 days (P = .14), and death events occurred in 11 patients versus zero patients referred using the m‐RS versus e‐RS (P = .003), respectively. Conclusion The introduction of an e‐RS was associated with more rapid processing of pediatric patients for cancer treatment and fewer patient deaths during the initial evaluation and treatment during that time period.
