A randomized controlled trial of shared decision-making treatment planning process to enhance shared decision-making in patients with MBC

“…The treatment plan process built upon for this intervention is designed to meet Oncology Care Model requirements, a requirement included in the current payment reform demonstration project, the Enhanced Oncology Model [ 50 ]. The novelty of this intervention is oncologist engagement through their review of electronic medical record-embedded patient dashboard and incorporation of patient-reported data into decision-making visits.…”

Learning to Overcome Barriers to Electronic Patient-Reported Outcome Implementation: Lessons From the Field

“…However, ePROs in real-world setting often extend beyond RSM to include distress screens, social determinants of health screens, and other tools, as now required in Medicare's payment reform demonstration project, the Enhancing Oncology Model. 11 Substantial knowledge gaps exist on how to comprehensively frame and deliver ePRO-based systems of care, and this will likely lead to the underutilization of ePRO data even when collected from patients.…”

Patient-Centered Decision-Making in Metastatic Breast Cancer Care Delivery: A Call to Action

“…2,3 The subsequent impact on cancer care payment through oncology patient-centered medical homes; alternative payment models such as the Oncology Care Model and its successor, the Enhancing Oncology Care Model; along with comprehensive investment in research, has further demonstrated an increasing prioritization of patient engagement to improve cancer care outcomes. [2][3][4][5] Most recently, the US Department of Health and Human Services, in collaboration with the National Cancer Institute, released the National Cancer Plan roadmap, which is focused on 8 essential goals to improve the lives of people diagnosed with cancer, including delivery of evidence-based, patient-centered care. 6 Cornerstone to patient-centered care is a highly functional patient-clinician relationship that is based on a collaborative partnership that promotes bidirectional communication, empathy, respect, comfort, and perspective-sharing.…”
