- Title
Ensuring High-Quality Cancer Care in the Mecicare Program.
- Abstract
The article presents the position of the Oncology Nursing Society (ONS) in ensuring high-quality cancer care in the Medicare program. ONS encourages that Medicare adequately and appropriately reimburses for and provide access to the full range of benefits and services including clinical trials, provided in the context of the delivery of multidisciplinary cancer care. ONS calls for Medicare to ensure patient safety and well-being and that payment policies for cancer therapies are evidence based and aligned with expert opinion.
