Quality Improvement Intervention to Improve Head and Neck Cancer Care in Safety Net Hospital Settings: Outcomes From a Single‐Visit Multidisciplinary Clinic Model

Implementation of a single-visit HNC MDC is associated with an improvement in TTI and pretreatment consult referral and completion for patients with HNC in a SNH setting. Our findings underscore the potential of structural care redesign to help facilitate timely care at SNHs. As SNHs continue to absorb a growing share of the HNC care burden, targeted investments in care coordination and infrastructure are critical to help deliver timely, high-quality cancer care.

Abstract

Implementation of a single-visit HNC MDC is associated with an improvement in TTI and pretreatment consult referral and completion for patients with HNC in a SNH setting. Our findings underscore the potential of structural care redesign to help facilitate timely care at SNHs. As SNHs continue to absorb a growing share of the HNC care burden, targeted investments in care coordination and infrastructure are critical to help deliver timely, high-quality cancer care.
