It’s not a debate. Physicians confirm that pharmacists are critical to cancer care success. 👏🏻 Modern oncology teams collaborate with pharmacists on treatment decisions to drive better, safer patient outcomes. Watch the full interview to hear more. ⬇️
WATCH: Oncology pharmacists are revolutionizing cancer care beyond medication management. Dr. Ina Patel, D.O. takes us behind the scenes of clinical decision-making at @utswcancer. 🧵 1/5 #oncology #oncopharm #MedTwitter #TwitterRx #BreastCancer #healthcare #UTSWcancer

Cigna uses an automated system that allows “medical directors” (doctors employed by @Cigna) to deny a claim in 1.2 seconds without opening the patient’s file. Please read this, share it, and help us (metaphorically) burn these companies to the ground.
Doctors at a major US insurance company deny tens of thousands of claims a month without even looking at patients’ files. “We literally click & submit,” a former Cigna doctor told @ProPublica & @Capitol_Forum. “It takes all of 10 seconds to do 50 at a time.” The inside story 🧵

In my 10+ years of co-survivorship, doing life with @DGlaucomflecken through 2 separate cancers, 1 SCA and fighting off his death with 10 mins of #CPR, only ONE (1) of the medical professionals we interacted with has ever asked how I was doing. Meet Roger. authors.elsevier.com/a/1giY0…

#TwitterTakeover with @MonicaSawiris! When I was a kid, my uncle underwent chemo & I had lots of questions about cancer meds. Later I shadowed an #oncopharm & my passion began. And, joining HOPA has expanded my understanding of the role of a pharmacist. bit.ly/3Th0a5A

1/ A family walks into a pharmacy in West Virginia. Their child has cancer. The pharmacy has the medicine behind the counter. But when that pharmacist calls the pharmacy benefit manager for the family’s insurance, they are denied authorization to give the family the medicine.

Loved all of the #ASCO Voices talks! The presentation by Khamai Simpson was excellent - “Equity in Clinical Trial Access: We Should Not Need Physician Friends” - Highly recommend it We need to be better about enrolling ALL patients in trials. Access and equity are so important!

It's faster and easier to buy a gun in America than to get insurance approval for my patients' life-saving medication.

If you were around me in 2016-2017, or even if you weren’t, this may give you some insight into what we went through. To be honest, there is so much I don’t remember, but huge shoutout to everyone who got us through 🤍 #caregiverawareness #cancersucks open.spotify.com/episode/1iC…
