Coborn Cancer Center is first in U.S. to join Mayo Clinic Cancer Care Network From Spotlight on Health - Spring 2012

 
CentraCare Health System’s Coborn Cancer Center is the first program in the United States to become a member of the Mayo Clinic Cancer Care Network.
 

The selection was based on a rigorous set of quality and service criteria. Coborn Cancer Center physicians will have access to Mayo Clinic’s disease management protocols, clinical care guidelines and reference materials, as well as eConsults, to get input on specific questions from Mayo experts as they care for their patients.

This makes CentraCare’s cancer program even stronger.

Coborn Cancer Center will use the Mayo Clinic Cancer Care Network wordmark in its promotions to visually recognize the link between Coborn Cancer Center and Mayo Clinic.

Patients and their families can be assured that Coborn Cancer Center and Mayo Clinic share a commitment to continually improve all aspects of health care. While some patients still will need to travel for highly specialized care, the primary goal of the network is to help people gain the benefits of Mayo Clinic expertise while receiving care closer to home.

CentraCare has enjoyed a longstanding working and referral relationship with Mayo Clinic, including research programs for patients interested in cancer-based clinical trials.

Coborn Cancer Center is not being acquired or merged with Mayo Clinic, but will remain an independent, community-based program that is part of CentraCare Health System.
