Trending Now in Cancer Care

From 2010 to 2019, the Association of Cancer Care Centers (ACCC) fielded an annual “Trending Now in Cancer Care Delivery” survey to its membership to gain insights into challenges faced and—most importantly—solutions to address those challenges. Members shared that during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, they did not have the time and/or resources to take this annual survey. This led ACCC to identify alternative ways to collect these data.

In 2020, ACCC conducted a series of focus groups to produce the 2020 Trending Now in Cancer report. In 2023, ACCC hosted a series of interactive sessions at its Annual Meeting & Cancer Center Business Summit (AMCCBS). Insights and solutions from these discussions were used to develop the 2023 Trending Now In Cancer Care Part 1 and Part 2 reports.

Discussions from the ACCC 50th AMCCBS held from February 28 to March 1, 2024, were used to develop the 2024 Trending Now In Cancer Care Part 1 and Part 2 reports.
