At the ACCC Business Summit, cancer centers united to find innovative ways to address current challenges, such as nursing shortages and staff burnout. The focus on the Enhancing Oncology Model and its implementation highlighted the need for support and guidance. Carevive stepped in, offering assistance in implementing the model, particularly in areas like electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePROs) and health-related social needs. By creating health-related social plans and addressing barriers to care, Carevive supports cancer centers in providing high-quality, patient-centered care.
