Patient-centered care is recognized by the National Academy of Medicine as an essential component of defining quality of care. At VieCure, we believe that the patient comes first. That is why we have designed a patient-centric ecosystem that provides the infrastructure needed for community cancer centers to deliver standard-of-care precision oncology to every patient. Stay tuned over the next couple of weeks to see how VieCure’s ecosystem works in unison to deliver Patient-Centered Care at the community level. #VieCure #PatientCenteredCare Source: Plsek P; Institute of Medicine.

Let’s talk about poop! Sound strange? Well not to the 20 American Medical Group Association (AMGA) member organizations who participated in AMGA Foundation’s Colorectal Cancer (CRC) Screening Best Practices Learning Collaborative in Indianapolis, Indiana this week for their second in-person meeting. This meeting marks midway through the Collaborative’s 18-month implementation phase to increase CRC screening rates among more than 4 million average risk patients age 45-75 by any modality. The healthcare organizations (HCOs) are reporting on measures and implementing interventions on CRC screening, follow-up after abnormal stool-based test, health equity and shared decision-making. Looking forward to the next phase in the collaborative and learning more of what the HCOs have accomplished. Thank you to our National Advisors Francis Colangelo, MD, MS-HQS, FACP, Laura Makaroff, and Theodore Levin; sponsor, Exact Sciences; and partner, American Cancer Society National Colorectal Cancer Roundtable (NCCRT) for participating and your support in this collective work. Participating HCOs: Crystal Run Healthcare, Inova Health, Olmsted Medical Center, Oregon Health & Science University, The Permanente Medical Group, Inc., WellSpan Health, Ballad Health, Henry Ford Health, Intermountain Health, Lehigh Valley Health Network, North Mississippi Health Services, Ochsner Health, Premier Medical Associates, P.C., Northwell Health, Novant Health, Prevea Health, Privia Health North Texas, Southwest Medical Associates, UAB Medicine, UW Medicine Erin Leaver-Schmidt, Earlean Chambers, John W Kennedy MD, Elizabeth Ciemins, @Cori Rattelman #colorectalcancerscreening #cancer #collaboratives #AMGA #bestpractices #sharedlearning #healthequity #shareddecisionmaking #populationhealth #quality #measures #followup

Patricia Peat from Cancer Options talks in this video about the Yes to Life Conference, which she has co-created with us. This year’s conferences – the online one on June 22nd, and one in-person in the Autumn – share the title ‘Pushing the Boundaries’, as we have decided to devote them both to looking at the latest developments in Integrative Medicine, across the board. Integrative Medicine is a living, rapidly expanding science, with new understandings and potential being unveiled on a daily basis. So that includes new techniques, new scientific understandings, and new applications for existing therapies, and you’ll be hearing fresh insights from some of your most trusted clinicians and scientists, and led into unfamiliar territory by pioneering speakers who may be as yet unfamiliar. Both events will be priced for accessibility, and the in-person Autumn Conference will include an extensive Exhibition that will offer yet more knowledge and resources to delegates. June 21st is the deadline for the early bird price for a joint ticket for both events of £40 (the online and the in person).

Increasing funding for medical research means that Peter Mac's 750 plus researchers can do even more to treat, and potentially cure, cancer! We applaud today's announcement from Federal Minister for Health and Aged Care Mark Butler! The $1.89 billion package includes a focus on cancers that have a low survival rate, and on reducing health inequities. There's additional funding for the Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF) - including more funding for clinical trials - and the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC). With more than 600 clinical trials currently underway at Peter Mac, we know how impactful these can be for people who are experiencing cancer. In many cases, they provide an avenue for hope and remission or recovery that would otherwise not be available. Along with our research colleagues across Australia we welcome today's announcement! There's so much to do. https://lnkd.in/gbJdrHyx

We're a proud member of Clinical Trials For All, a groundbreaking program aimed at making clinical trials more inclusive and accessible by educating patients & caregivers about the opportunities & advantages of research as care.
