Starting 2024 off with a roar 🦁 Incredibly proud to be part of an org that understands the impact of navigation & to lead our newest navigation program, ACS LION, as we work to ensure more people with cancer can benefit from the critical support of a navigator. More below:
Welcome 2024-- and a historic moment in the USA! As of Jan 1, cancer patients have increased accessed to professional navigators. This is key, as navigation has been shown to improve outcomes & reduce the cancer burden. @AmericanCancer is here to help! #MedTwitter 👇

At #ASCOQLTY23 I was asked, ‘why now?’ for patient navigation reimbursement in the @CMSGov 2024 physician fee schedule. My reaction is ‘WHY NOT?’ Decades of research and advocacy, real person after real person, the impact of navigation is clear. The time is now. #togetherwecan

Just to be super clear. That’s 21 million people. Imagine not being able to afford life-saving cancer treatment. Or pay for the gas to drive two hours to get treatment. We’ve got to change this narrative. #ruralcancerdisparities @ACSRoad2Recovry @ACSHopeLodge @AmericanCancer

#SDOH research -> SDOH screening -> then what? The ACS CARES app recommends info and resources based on SDOH concerns to support cancer info needs and reduce #barrierstocare #fromknowingtodoing
Why does the statement “Your ZIP code is more important to your health than your genetic code” surprise people but resonate with many population scientists? Read about how we're advancing #SDOH research at #NIH through cross-cutting collaboration: https://t.co/j6MCeULtrv
