Robert Stone and Marcel van den Brink at the Progress, Potential, And Possibilities podcast – City of Hope

Robert Stone and Dr. Marcel van den Brink recently joined the Progress, Potential, And Possibilities podcast discussing key topics such as City of Hope’s expanding national footprint, access to advanced care, global collaboration and diversity in clinical trials, in addition to providing detail on some of the latest advances in research at City of Hope.

‘Value and access, and access to the cutting-edge clinical trials and the research that’s happening at centers like City of Hope, those two concepts are linked by the concept that access means survival.

And the greatest definition of value, the one that cancer patients care the most about, is survival. Conversations that are happening in the policy halls and in insurance discussions about value in healthcare today are too often limited to discussions about cost savings.

We should start the value conversation by focusing on the benefit to society of saving a life,’ says Robert Stone, CEO of City of Hope and the Helen and Morgan Chu Chief Executive Officer Distinguished Chair.

Listen and watch the interview for more.”
