Integrating health equity into value-based care models can enhance patient outcomes while reducing costs. At the recent CMS Health Equity Conference, Shenandoah Oncology's Misty Chicchirichi participated in the panel session, Setting the Stage for Health Equity and Value-Based Care. During the panel, Misty highlighted how Shenandoah Oncology is using patient navigators and Findhelp to connect patients to local resources to reduce food insecurity and address other non-clinical needs such as financial, housing, and transportation support.

Practices in The Network truly operate at the forefront of cancer care. Recently, the cellular therapy team at Virginia Oncology Associates completed the very first myeloma Abcema CAR T-cell infusion in an outpatient, private practice setting in the US. Congratulations to the team on this incredible accomplishment! #Myeloma #CommunityOncology #ClinicalResearch
Congratulations to the cellular therapy team at VOA for completing the first myeloma Abecma CAR T-cell infusion in an outpatient, private practice setting in the United States! Abecma is an IV CAR T-cell medication used to treat adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma when the following conditions have been met: 1) Two or more kinds of treatment have not worked or stopped working AND 2) You've had at least one therapy from each of these drug classes, immunomodulatory agent, proteasome inhibitor, and anti CD38-antibody To learn more about cellular therapies at VOA, visit https://lnkd.in/eVzaVGj4

Excited to announce our new blog article discussing the impact of gaps in health equity on patient outcomes. Maximizing outcomes for cancer patients goes beyond the clinic and requires addressing socioeconomic factors and the environment. Join us as we explore the importance of addressing Social Drivers of Health (SDoH) and how it can lead to a more equitable healthcare system. https://lnkd.in/gqufEBBb Stuart Staggs, Jessica Neeb MSN, RN, OCN, Evan Osborne, MBA, MPH, BSRT(T) (ARRT), PMP, Willamette Valley Cancer Institute & Research Center, Shenandoah Oncology, Findhelp #HealthEquity #SDoH #CancerCare

Sometimes, the clinic just has to come to the patient. Recently, Texas Oncology San Antonio partnered up with CHRISTUS Santa Rosa and Tyson Foods to bring mobile mammography services to underserved women in Seguin, TX. With three total events (May, July, and one upcoming in October), dozens of women received/will receive mammograms and self-exam kits and screening resources. Incredible to see this practice truly going out into the community to remove barriers to care. https://lnkd.in/gSGJkKrh #SDOH #BarriersToCare #Mammogram #BreastCancer #CommunityOncolog

Tremendous advances are made every day in the fight against cancer, but many promising treatments are costly, placing patients under enormous financial pressure that threatens their ability to achieve optimal outcomes. In our recent case study, we examine the very real impact of high cost of care on cancer patients, how treatment in an independent practice can relieve financial burdens, and the benefits beyond cost that independent cancer centers provide.

Dr. Zonera Ali has been treating patient Lisa Sucharski for over a decade. Lisa was first diagnosed with Stage 3 Triple Positive Breast Cancer in 2014, and then later with Stage 4 cancer in 2016. At every step of her journey, Lisa has found hope, support, and solace at Alliance Cancer Specialists, PC. "When the questions started to come hard and fast, Dr. Ali took my phone calls in the middle of the day and talked me through every concern," Lisa said. "There have been many unplanned phone calls from me to Dr. Ali's phone, and it is never long before she answers the call with, 'how are you, darling?' That level of care and learning together has been a great grounding force." Read more about Lisa and Dr. Ali's story in the May issue of Suburban Life Magazine (p. 44), and see all 25 physicians at Alliance who have been recognized as Top Physicians in 2024 (p. 48). https://lnkd.in/gX4Hn2-k #BreastCancer #TPBC #CommunityOncology
