On Demand Recording: Uncovering the True Potential for Thoracic Program Growth
Lung cancer is the #1 cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States, yet the care continuum often remains fragmented and difficult for patients to navigate. Across the nation, there has been an increased focus on building thoracic programs to improve both the patient experience and stage of lung cancer at diagnosis. Has your hospital begun to implement a comprehensive thoracic program?
Thoracic Program Development from both an Administrative and Clinical Perspective
Listen to this in-depth discussion on developing a thoracic program which will explore the benefits of managing patients with incidental findings, developing a free-standing lung tumor board, and garnering executive sponsorship.
We look forward to a robust discussion and live Q&A.
