Oncology Initiative
Overview
The Oncology Initiative was developed to support the needs of coalitions and employers seeking successful strategies across the patient journey continuum. In 2019, the report, Achieving Value in Cancer Care, was launched and identifies gaps in treatment and related benefits administration based on the National Alliance’s annual eValue8™ survey of health plans. It provides a framework and recommendations for purchasers, health plans, and providers to collaborate on the delivery of high-value, patient-centered care.
Our Next Steps
Moving forward, we are creating a set of modules on the patient journey, hosting employer roundtables for coalitions, and developing Action Briefs that educate employers on strategies and best practices for dealing with cancer in the workplace.
