Background
Despite published guidelines, numerous on-line information resources, and a plethora of oncology-specific EMR products, the great majority of oncologists continue to practice as they have for 20 years: trusting their memories and nurses’ support to prescribe and manage cancer treatment. The ever-growing complexity of cancer management makes this approach increasingly risky for both patient and provider.
Advantages
ChemoOrders.com enhances patient care in three measurable ways:
- By providing oncology professionals the latest treatment protocols, with strict adherence to the published dose, schedule, and administration guidelines.
- By dramatically increasing the efficiency with which chemotherapy orders and related documents are generated.
- By significantly reducing prescribing mistakes, administration errors, patient risk, and physician liability.
Founders
ChemoOrders.com was developed by Georgia Cancer Specialists—the largest private oncology practice in the Southeastern United States. The practice recognized an unmet need to address the ever-increasing complexity of cancer management, and believes ChemoOrders.com will enhance cancer treatment through the delivery of standardized, predictable, and safer patient care.
