Community oncologists achieve significant victories every day in fighting cancer with care that is personal, accessible and within national guidelines. Yet more practices are closing their doors as a result of legislative and reimbursement pressures.
Community Counts is a physician-led movement focused on showing the real, measurable value of community oncology. Whether you’re a physician, a nurse, a payer or a patient, you can do your part to ensure the success of community oncology now and in the future.
JOIN THE CAUSE that increases awareness of the important role these practices play.
TAKE CHARGE and make informed decisions about cancer care delivery.
ENACT CHANGE that will shape the treatment setting to come.
ION Solutions is proud to work with Eli Lilly and Company on Community Counts. Working together, we strive to secure the future of community oncology so that patients have a choice in where they access the best, high-quality, affordable care and treatment.
