Jasmine Kamboj, Physician at Mayo Clinic Health System, Podcast Editor and Host of the ‘Empowering Oncologists’ podcast at OncoDaily, shared Marilyn Heine’s, Physician Leader at Pennsylvania Medical Society, post, adding:
“Thanks dear Dr Marilyn Heinef or your time and insights on Empowering Oncologists by OncoDaily.
Amazing talk, and as always I learn so so so much!
We discuss:
- Prior auth related delays impact quality cancer care
- Physician reimbursement needs to come up to speed per the inflation, to make practices sustainable
- Multi faceted approaches for drug shortages is critically needed.”
Quoting Marilyn Heine’s post:
“Delighted to discuss with Jasmine Kamboj the importance of health policy and advocacy in the practice of oncology.
We covered how oncologists should be able to focus on treating patients, but prior authorization, an unstable Medicare payment system and persistent drug shortages increasingly interfere with our ability to provide timely, evidence-based care.
The American Medical Association continues to work with Congress, federal agencies and physician organizations, including the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) and other oncology specialty societies to advance solutions that put patients and physicians first.”
