Oncology Practices
A Network For Improving Cancer Care
More than 100 oncology practices, representing more than 2,000 oncologists, are part of the CancerLinQ® network to improve patient care. Using this platform, which contains more than two million cancer patient records, clinicians can track the quality of care in their practices and identify gaps and opportunities for better care.
How It Works
When a practice participates in CancerLinQ, treatment information about the practice’s patients is transferred from the practice’s electronic health record (EHR) into the secure CancerLinQ platform. The data is then curated and harmonized to help inform clinicians' care decisions, and uncover insights that can drive quality improvement.
Solutions
For practices of all sizes, CancerLinQ's quality measurement and reporting tools leverage both structured and unstructured data to reduce the burden of manual data abstraction.
