S8 Ep.2: WHY ONCOLOGY NAVIGATION IS IMPORTANT IN CANCER CARE

Описание: A cancer diagnosis is scary enough. Navigating it alone? That's a whole different ballgame.
Oncology navigators are the unsung heroes of cancer care who cut through all the red tape to do with health insurance, connecting patients to the right specialists, transportation, and making sure no one gets lost in the never-ending maze of the health systems.
Patients with navigators get diagnosed earlier, complete their treatments, and have better outcomes according to research and is why a cancer patient needs an expert oncology guide on their journey.
If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with cancer, ask for a patient navigator. If your hospital doesn't have one, advocate for it.

🎬 It is why we are so honored and excited to host our esteemed guest on Season 8 Episode 2 to share why this critical resource is vital, concerns regarding health insurance coverage for cancer patients who need this, and other issues of importance.
