The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) announced today a new model aimed at improving cancer care for Medicare patients and lowering health care costs. The Enhancing Oncology Model (EOM) was designed to test how to improve health care providers’ ability to deliver care centered around patients, consider patients’ unique needs, and deliver cancer care in a way that will generate the best possible patient outcomes.
