Survival rates can vary by 20–30% depending on where care is delivered. Yet in a crisis, employees often choose what's nearby or familiar, guided by network design, internal referrals, and urgency rather than expertise.

- High volumes by cancer type
- Multidisciplinary tumor boards
- Access to clinical trials and advanced supportive care
These capabilities improve outcomes and can reduce avoidable complications and costs.
