Watch to Hear Insights from Experts

At a time when increased costs are the new normal, many cancer providers are facing burdensome challenges from staffing to managing rising care costs while simultaneously trying to understand newly launched care models such as the Enhancing Oncology Model (EOM).

Navigating Cancer’s key experts break down the confusion around EOM and provide clarity on how previous care models led to the new model. The discussion includes lessons learned from the Oncology Care Model (OCM) and how their inclusion into EOM builds upon what clinics have done, from shared decision-making to improvements in patient-centered care, and treatment.

In this on-demand webinar, Dr. Ethan Basch, MD, MSc, Chief of Oncology at the University of North Carolina, Dr. Lalan Wilfong, MD, Executive Vice President, Value-Based Care, and Quality Programs at Texas Oncology, and Stephanie Braatz, MSN, NP-C, AOCNP and Chief Clinical Officer at Piedmont Cancer Institute join Navigating Cancer’s Dr. Amila Patel as they share their experience and insights on effective implementation of value-driven care models to maximize reimbursement for all patient populations.

Attend to understand:

  • The complex landscape of value-aligned payment models, the benefits of enhanced care delivery services, and the roadmap for further innovations designed to improve health equity and decrease inefficiencies.
  • How to address common questions when considering how to successfully develop care management programs, including the impact and value of implementing ePROS.
  • The business drivers behind Piedmont Cancer Institutes’  incentive for integrating ePROs and the steps that proved critical to their success.
  • How Navigating Cancer’s integrated platform can enable clinics to improve patient engagement through remote care, including insights on what clinics need to succeed in EOM and beyond.
