KC-based Avax hopes to keep expanding cancer vaccine Someday, one of the standard treatments for cancer could start with a tumor already in your body. Clinicians would take that tumor and use it to make a vaccine. Your body would then be injected with the vaccine, which would direct your immune system to attack the cancer. Medical technology firms allied Cerner Corp. said Monday that it had formed a strategic relationship with LifeOutcomes, a clinical information management company that specializes in care for patients with a chronic pulmonary disease. When the subject turns to managed health care, things can get ugly.
Doctors hate being second-guessed by insurers.
Patients hate the endless forms, costs and begging for the right to get a medical procedure.
