Implementation of a single-visit HNC MDC is associated with an improvement in TTI and pretreatment consult referral and completion for patients with HNC in a SNH setting.

As SNHs continue to absorb a growing share of the HNC care burden, targeted investments in care coordination and infrastructure are critical to help deliver timely, high-quality cancer care.
