COA Patient Advocacy Event

Join the Cancer Center of Middle Georgia CPAN Chapter for our next advocacy educational event. Our topic will be fail first/step therapy.

During this event, patients will learn about the positive impact of community oncologists ensuring that patients always get the right individual cancer treatment.

You will also learn about the concerning effects of middlemen (Pharmacy Benefit Managers) not oncologists, dictating which treatments patients with cancer can or cannot receive, and in what order also known as fail-first or step therapy. As a community oncology practice, we are working to ensure that a patient’s medical needs are the first and only requirement for cancer care.
