Illustrative example of one screening in four steps. Step 1: the patient completes the questionnaires on the four areas digitally. Step 2: myon.clinic automatically checks each area against a threshold. In the example, psychosocial distress and malnutrition risk are above the threshold and are flagged; physical symptoms and social-legal questions are below it. Step 3: the medical team reviews, comments and documents the need for psycho-oncology and nutritional counselling. Step 4: every screening counts automatically towards the centre's screening rate, which is above the target of at least 65 percent. The audit report is available automatically.

Since 2026Mandatory for DKG Oncology Centres

Are you DKG-certified or planning to be? Then the baseline screening is mandatory for you.

For a long time, the German Cancer Society (DKG) only recommended the oncology baseline screening. Since the 2026 requirements catalogue, it is mandatory for Oncology Centres, and further certification systems such as the Visceral Oncology Centres follow with the 2027 audits. The aim is to identify the distress and needs of cancer patients early and in a standardised way.

  • At first diagnosis, recurrence, metastasis and other relevant disease events
  • At first contact and during the further course, adapted to the patient and the course of the disease
  • Ideally as patient self-report (PRO), defined in an interdisciplinary SOP

    Screening rate

    Measured through the distress screening indicator, which stands for all four screening areas.

  2. EvidenceOnce a year

    Surveillance audit

    Auditors check the rate, the documentation for each case and your centre's interdisciplinary SOP.

  3. Scope4 areas

    To be captured as a minimum

    • Psychosocial distress
    • Physical symptoms
    • Malnutrition risk
    • Social and legal questions

Well prepared for your next audit.

The DKG certificate is a visible proof of quality for your centre. It opens the door to centre surcharges, to requirements in state hospital planning and to selective contracts. A well set-up baseline screening keeps it secure.

Status quo and digital compared

From a stack of paper to an automatic audit report.

On paper, the effort starts after the forms are filled in: transferring, evaluating and collecting the evidence. With myon.clinic, exactly these steps disappear.

Step 3 · Evaluate

Evaluating and following up by hand

Calculating scores, looking for abnormal results, chasing incomplete forms.

Physician comments and records the need

Abnormal values are flagged. Review briefly, comment, document the need for support.

FAQ

Your questions about the baseline screening.

Since when has the baseline screening been mandatory?

For Oncology Centres, the baseline screening has applied since the 2026 requirements catalogue, i.e. for all audits from 1 January 2026. Further certification systems, such as the Visceral Oncology Centres, follow with the requirements catalogues for audits from 1 January 2027. Psycho-oncological distress screening with a target of at least 65% has been part of certification for some time.

Is screening on paper still allowed?

Yes. The DKG accepts both digital and paper-based capture, but recommends switching to IT-based capture in the long term. Digitally, transfer and manual evaluation are no longer needed, and the documentation for the audit is available automatically.

Which questionnaires are used?

Validated instruments that are also listed in the DKG guidance: NCCN Distress Thermometer, PHQ-9, GAD-7, IPOS, PROMIS-29 and NRS-2002.

How quickly can we start?

Your centre is usually ready to go within a few working days. No integration into your IT is required.

Who makes the clinical decisions?

Always the treating medical team. myon.clinic captures, evaluates and flags abnormal results. The decision on support services remains with you.

What do patients need?

A smartphone, tablet or laptop. They start via QR code or link, for example in the waiting room or before the appointment by letter or email.
