COA needs your support for 2019!

Published On: November 29th, 2018Categories: Member Updates

We are about to enter a critical period for community oncology.

Far-reaching Medicare policies are under consideration in Washington that have the potential to completely transform your practice and, quite possibly, ability to survive.

From the way you and your practice are reimbursed; to how you acquire and deliver complex cancer drugs; to your ability to compete with local hospitals; to the pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) middlemen that have slowly stifled physician autonomy and decision making; policymakers are examining every facet of cancer care. Nothing is sacred.

The Community Oncology Alliance (COA) is on the frontlines, advocating for your patients and practice, but we cannot do it alone. We need your support for what is shaping up to be one of the most challenging periods in more than a decade.

 

 

COA has grown to be a formidable and powerful voice for community oncology, but we need your support to take on the increasingly large challenges we face going into 2019. Please donate today to help fund our work on your behalf!

To donate or if you have any questions, contact COA team member Johanna Hopkins at (757) 822-6139 or jhopkins@coacancer.org.

Thank you in advance for your support!
