Patient Care Services

Because we focus exclusively on cancer care, US Oncology can assist CSA-affiliated physicians in their provision of the most relevant, up-to-date clinical services highlights include:   • Evidence-based medicine guidelines, called Level I Pathways, specifically designed for oncology, helping reduce variation in care and improve its quality. • Innovent Oncology, a service that brings together evidence-based medicine, disease management, and advance care planning to help control costs and improve clinical outcomes. • An electronic medical health system, called iKnowMed, that was created by oncologists, for oncologists. • Educational services for employees, including a core-competency series and an annual oncology competency exam. • A Clinical Leadership Council that brings together representatives from different disciplines to develop improved quality measures. • A Six Sigma team to help practices determine how to assign tasks and how to benchmark their practices’ time and costs against best practices.
