In a significant development for cancer care in Utah, Survivor Healthcare has announced a strategic partnership with Utah Cancer Specialists (UCS), the state's largest community-based oncology and hematology practice. This collaboration aims to provide enhanced patient care by allowing UCS oncologists to connect their patients with specialized primary care providers from the moment of their cancer diagnosis. The partnership addresses a critical gap in cancer treatment—supporting the physical, mental, and social health of patients during their cancer journey. Patients often experience a range of health-related issues alongside their cancer treatment, such as chronic pain, anxiety, fatigue, and cognitive decline. By integrating primary supportive care into the treatment process, UCS hopes to provide a more holistic approach to cancer care that prioritizes the overall well-being of patients. Randy Erickson, CEO of Utah Cancer Specialists, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, "This partnership is an important new step in our efforts to provide the highest quality of care to our patients. By connecting our patients with Survivor Healthcare's clinicians, we can ensure that they not only receive the best cancer care but also the essential primary care they need to maintain their quality of life throughout their treatment and recovery." One of the standout features of Survivor Healthcare is its telehealth platform, which facilitates access to care from the comfort of patients' homes. This innovation is particularly beneficial for cancer patients who may struggle with the rigors of frequent in-person visits. The platform supports a whole-patient approach to care, which has demonstrated improved health outcomes and reduced unnecessary medical costs. Survivor Healthcare is also recognized for its use of electronic Patient Reported Outcomes (ePROs) data, which enables real-time monitoring of patients' physical and emotional health. This data-driven methodology allows clinicians to make informed decisions that adapt to the evolving needs of patients as they navigate their treatment journey, ultimately enhancing the patient experience and clinical outcomes. George Willock, CEO of Survivor Healthcare, emphasized the significance of the partnership, stating, "We are honored to partner with Utah Cancer Specialists to provide patients with a seamless and comprehensive care experience. Cancer care is not just about treatment—it's about supporting the whole patient. Our multi-disciplinary care model ensures that each patient's emotional, physical, and social needs are met, which in turn improves their overall quality of life." With over 30 years of experience, Utah Cancer Specialists has established itself as a leader in the fight against cancer, offering cutting-edge treatments and access to innovative clinical trials across the state. This new partnership marks a promising step forward in improving patient care, emphasizing the importance of a comprehensive approach to health during one of life’s most challenging times. Both organizations encourage patients to learn more about their services, with further information available at their respective websites. As they move forward together, UCS and Survivor Healthcare aim to redefine cancer care in Utah, setting a new standard for the treatment and support of cancer patients.
