Kashyap Patel: Our third annual gala to underscore the significance of collaboration in cancer care

Kashyap Patel,

“As we push forward in our mission to address cancer health disparities, (which contribute to 34% of preventable deaths in the USA as per the 2020 AACR report) we are thrilled to extend an invitation to all stakeholders. Join us at our third annual Gala in Ballantyne, Charlotte, where we will underscore the significance of collaboration in cancer care. This event will bring together payers, national not-for-profit groups, patients, providers, and pharma partners to emphasize the importance of working together to unlock the full potential of human innovative power.

Participants will have the opportunity to engage with prominent figures in the field of oncology, from the SVP of commercial health insurance plans to the chief medical officer of Palmetto GBA, alongside the founders and leaders of notable not-for-profit organizations such as COA, NCODA, SCMA, NMQF, THC, and NCCN, who are at the forefront of patient-centered Cancer Care.

Drawing inspiration from Mahatma Gandhi‘s journey titled “My Story of Experiments with Truth,” we view our demonstration project as a series of experiments aimed at driving positive change in cancer care. As part of our commitment, I am personally donating $63,000 for the year, coinciding with my upcoming 63rd birthday.

A special thanks to JNJ, Amgen, Labcorp, Foundation Medicine, Oxford Biodynamics, Pharmacosmos, Patient Point, Sobi Pharma, Geron Therapeutics, Servier Pharma, Centene, and many others for their unwavering support and commitment to sponsor this event.”
