Onco Care

Pipeline: development stage

Check out support options

Topic:

The patient in the process
For the oncology patient, time and effectiveness of treatment and support matter. The patient care system is complex and hinders effective treatment.

Use of radiation therapy in cancer treatment
Radiation therapy should be used in about
2/3 of cancer patients. In Poland, the percentage is 50-55%, despite a 10% increase in 5 years.

Available equipment
There are 52 radiotherapy centers in Poland. In 2022, 99,016 patients were treated. Old radiation therapy equipment has been
replaced. Poland ranks in the European average in terms of equipment.

15%

This is the number of patients with malignant tumours in Poland
who do not receive radiotherapy, even though it is the
best option for them.It's as if 39,000 people don't have
access to the necessary treatment every year.

Purpose and scope of the project

Increase the average, daily, number of
Patients undergoing radiation therapy

.

Improving the experience of patients and their families
as part of the oncology diagnosis and treatment process

Comfort: first-time pathway to start treatment

Physician time during follow-up visits

Consilium and efficiency of decision-making processes (EBM)

Patient Pathways, a culture of process improvement

Expected results
