Better Quality, Better Margins: Seizing the Moment

In an article in Community Oncology, Alice makes the argument that because of the perverse impact of the Medicare drug payment model on oncology practices, they have neglected to focus on their own business case for some time. When much of your income is driven by profits made on the provision of pharmaceuticals to patients, a reduction in that payment can result in significant practice dislocation. For oncologists, the moment may well be optimal to really consider clinical integration. In “Better Quality, Better Margins: Seizing the Moment” Alice elucidates these connections in relationship to the application of UFT-A principles.
