Proventys CDS Oncology™
Proventys and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network® (NCCN®) have entered into an exclusive collaboration to introduce the Proventys CDS Oncology™ system, a first-of-its-kind Web platform that arms oncologists with expert recommendations and evidence facilitating the delivery of high-quality, individualized patient care. Through this collaboration, Proventys and NCCN are bringing together the recognized standard in oncology clinical guidelines and novel informatics technologies to help clinicians optimize treatment decisions for patients while improving practice efficiencies.
In today’s complex healthcare environment, clinicians are facing increasing pressure to provide high-quality, cost-effective care consistent with evidence-based standards of medical practice. To address this demand, Proventys CDS Oncology was designed to automate the NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines™) in a dynamic and structured fashion according to individual patient characteristics, and enable clinicians to access evidence-based recommendations efficiently within the clinical workflow. The Proventys system offers clinicians guidance on appropriate lab and imaging tests, provides information on cancer staging and highlights the most relevant treatment regimens available for the patient based on NCCN Guidelines™ and other decision rules. As a key component of the collaboration, Proventys CDS Oncology will also feature real-time alerts of critical updates to the NCCN Guidelines reflecting the latest recommendations for cancer therapy.
Proventys CDS Oncology will be available for clinicians starting in Q4 2010 and will also be offered through payer-sponsored quality programs. The system will initially include NCCN Guidelines for Breast, Colon, and Non-Small Cell Lung cancers as well as Hodgkin lymphoma.
