An estimated 38% of Americans will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetimes. Fortunately, with breakthroughs in diagnostic testing, targeted and immunotherapies, and surgical procedures, cancer is being detected earlier and survivorship is increasing. More than half of those diagnosed with cancer in the US are being treated in a community-based setting, providing high-quality care closer to patients’ homes, at costs up to 60% less than in acute care hospitals.
Despite their critical role, community oncology practices face enormous challenges, including increased pressure from hospital consolidation, limited resources to invest in innovation, and continued shifts to alternative payment models.
OneOncology empowers community oncology practices by supporting the entire continuum of care, including prevention and diagnosis, research and treatment, long-term survivorship, and palliative and hospice care. Through this comprehensive approach, OneOncology aims to achieve improved patient experience and outcomes while benefiting their providers and payers through better aligned payment models.
