In September 2012, two Oklahoma candidates, Christina Panicker and Sarah Smith, sat for and successfully passed the Certified Tumor Registrar exam. Christina Panicker has been a registry consultant for OCCR since May of 2011. She graduated from Southern Nazarene University with an MBA in healthcare and is currently a resident of Yukon, OK. Sarah Smith is a cancer registrar for Jane Phillips Medical Center in her hometown of Bartlesville, OK. Graduating from Colorado Technical University, Sarah received an Associate of Science in Medical Billing and Coding in 2009. Prior to taking the exam last fall, Christina and Sarah participated in the NAACCR CTR Exam Readiness webinar series. Both women highly recommend the webinar series to anyone planning to sit for the CTR exam in the future.
