Join us for an insightful webinar on August 15 at 11 am (EST), presented by the American Cancer Society (ACS). They will be discussing ACS LION—a standardized training and credentialing program that helps patient navigators deliver essential nonclinical support to individuals, caregivers, and families facing cancer.
Patient navigation is crucial for proton centers that treat patients from out of the area, as these patients often need specialized help to access this advanced care. Effective patient navigation can significantly reduce disparities in patient access, ensuring that more individuals can benefit from proton therapy regardless of their location.
Additionally, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) have started reimbursing for patient navigation services, allowing healthcare providers to be compensated for this vital work. This webinar will provide valuable insights into how patient navigation can enhance patient care and support proton centers in delivering comprehensive, accessible treatment.
Don't miss this opportunity to learn about the impact of patient navigation and the benefits of the ACS LION program!
