Popis: Data on disease collected by federal and state groups for surveillance or administrative purposes may also be a relatively easy and efficient means of surveillance of occupational disease. In this paper we will discuss several useful sources of data including state death certificates, cancer registries, state workers' compensation files, hospital discharge records, and other health data sources. We will describe each data source briefly and discuss its advantages and disadvantages
