Lincoln Nadauld. Molecular Tumor Board helps interpret data from genomic testing and promote decision making precision in oncology.. interpretation on front of report - gene and drugs to consider with order button. #NatlCancerForum @OncologyNursing Intermountain Cancer

Nearly 40% of Americans incorrectly believe that alternative medicine can cure cancer, new study finds. nbcnews.to/2DbqoTH

Great to be at the National Cancer Policy Forum. Thanks to the organizers for inviting Intermountain Healthcare and Intermountain Precision Genomics. #NatlCancerForum #Intermountain #IntermountainPrecisionGenomics

Major challenge in precision medicine: interpretation of highly complex molecular tests

Molecular tumor boards can solve/resolve interpretation of highly complex NGS tests in precision oncology. Intermountain Cancer #NatlCancerForum

How to get paid for interpreting highly complex tests? That is a question driven by an increasingly outdated fee-for-service model. Intermountain Cancer #NatlCancerForum

Drive to a value-based model where interpretation of tests is part of the precision medicine workflow because it delivers better outcomes. Intermountain Cancer #NatlCancerForum

Every patient is entitled to a fully informed treatment plan. Intermountain Cancer Intermountain Health #NatlCancerForum

“Certain re-uses of patient data should be routine.” - @healthprivacy agreed! #NatlCancerForum

Patients Emily Kramer-Golinkoff from Emily's Entourage and Bryce Olson share their expert perspectives on standard of care versus #personalizedmedicine at #pmconf @permedcoalition

Numbers to know: - 14,000 genetic tests in the market - 14 new genetic tests daily - 12 million DTC tests ordered - 132 drugs with biomarker in label

“For a health care system seeking to reduce the total cost of care, disruptive innovations can play a crucial role in driving down the cost of care without compromising the qualities and outcomes.” - Clayton Christensen

More wisdom from Clayton Christensen “Precision medicine is a disruptive force that delivers innovations to replace high cost treatments with simple rules-based approaches which become broadly accessible and affordable.”

“Every patient who comes into the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute has their tumor genomically profiled.” Preach on, Raju Kucherlapati! Same thing Intermountain Cancer Intermountain Health Derrick Haslem

Sequence everyone! It’s cheap enough, fast enough, and important enough! #PMConf Intermountain Cancer Intermountain Health

IMO, patient demand for genomics is outstripping our ability to provide it. #PMConf
