“NCCN is pleased to expand our collaboration with McKesson Specialty Health and further enhance Value Pathways powered by NCCN,” said Robert W. Carlson, MD, chief executive officer, NCCN. “In supporting this expanded agreement, both NCCN and McKesson recognize the value of having evidence-based NCCN Guidelines recommendations at the point of care facilitated through technology to achieve the best outcomes for patients with cancer.”
Value Pathways powered by NCCN and Clear Value Plus enable practices to succeed in today’s evolving value-based environment by driving high-quality care and confirming that selected therapies are consistent with nationally recognized clinical guidelines as required by value-based programs, including the Oncology Care Model. In addition to tracking pathways adherence, Clear Value Plus also supports value-based care by integrating financial information, benchmarking and providing up to date reporting on key performance metrics, such as regimen utilization history and program participation for individual providers, a single site or across an entire practice. Additionally, the increased financial transparency provided by Value Pathways and Clear Value Plus allows evaluation of the cost-effectiveness of different treatment options with similar outcomes, an important element in value-based care.
