Care management
The journey you are about to begin can be confusing and difficult. Your Care Management team will be invaluable in helping you successfully navigate the treatment process. Your team will consist of your physician, care manager, nurse, nutritionist and other experts, as needed. Many insurance companies, including Medicare, recognize the importance of care management and are now making it a part of the required services.
To begin, we will assign you a care manager, who will help you prepare for what lies ahead. Your care manager is a highly skilled registered nurse who will work closely with your physician and other members of your team to make certain you receive the support and services you require. Your personal care manager will be with you through the entire treatment process and beyond.
The goal of care management is to help you manage your physical, psychosocial and emotional needs, and act as your primary contact. Care management performs many functions, including providing education regarding the problems or side effects commonly experienced throughout treatment while under your physician’s care. Your care manager will assist you with creating and understanding your personalized plan of care and help facilitate communication between your oncologist and other providers. Care managers are available Monday – Friday 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. to answer questions.
Telehealth
Our approach to cancer care is always patient focused and individualized, whether care is delivered in a personal visit at an office or via a video chat. Telehealth services, when appropriate, provide an excellent option for patients who cannot travel, or wish to reduce travel, to their doctor’s office.
- Receive personalized care in the comfort of your home, or virtually anywhere
- Reduce the time, cost and effort associated with traveling to an in-person office visit
- See your provider from anywhere; just click on your provider’s personalized room link to join him or her for a scheduled video chat
- No need to download software or create an account, simply use a computer or mobile device
- Just like a regular appointment, your virtual visit is entirely private and confidential
DigniCap®
Hair loss is a well-documented side effect of many chemotherapy drugs. The DigniCap® Scalp Cooling System offers you the possibility to minimize hair loss from certain chemotherapy drugs. For over a decade DigniCap has successfully helped thousands of patients globally. At select locations, we offer the FDA-cleared DigniCap treatment as an option for our patients to help diminish the burden from hair loss.
DigniCap features a patented cooling cap that is placed directly on the head. A liquid coolant circulates throughout the cap, delivering consistent and controlled cooling to all areas of the scalp. These factors together reduce the risk of hair loss.
DigniCap can be used by patients receiving chemotherapy to treat solid tumors for breast cancer as well as prostate, ovarian, uterine, lung and other tissues. Please note that scalp cooling is effective with many chemotherapy drugs, but not all. Your doctor can tell you if scalp cooling is compatible with your treatment.
