To earn voluntary CoC accreditation, a cancer program must meet 34 CoC quality care standards, continue to be evaluated every three years through a survey process and maintain levels of excellence in the delivery of comprehensive patient-centered care. Because we’re a CoC-accredited hospital, we take a multidisciplinary approach to treating cancer as a complex group of diseases. This requires consultation among surgeons, medical and radiation oncologists, diagnostic radiologists, pathologists and other cancer specialists. This multidisciplinary partnership results in improved patient care.
