How Leading Health Systems Enable their PCPs to Screen for Cancer Early

WEBINAR ON DEMAND
Duration: 1 hour


Today, most cancers are found late. After metastasis, patients only have a 1 in 5 chance of survival. [1]

When diagnosed early, the 5-year cancer survival rate is 4x higher than when diagnosed in later stages. [1]  Screening for cancers early and accurately can increase patients’ chances for successful cancer treatment.

Primary care providers (PCPs) in health systems can be challenged to implement novel technologies that unlock screening options for patients. Many health systems have already developed effective strategies to guide and support PCPs in incorporating multi-cancer early detection (MCED) into their practice. During this webinar, hear from health system experts sharing their experiences in the implementation of MCED and how this innovative technology may increase the chance for successful cancer treatment. Learn how:

  • Incorporating MCED into primary care can transform cancer screening
  • Health systems can educate PCPs and implement effective processes to support them and their patients
  • Health systems can position themselves as state-of-the-art providers by delivering MCED screenings
