The COVID-19 pandemic has forced many health care systems to alter the way they provide services to their communities, embracing substantial changes to their clinical practice. With institutions considering making some of these changes permanent, it is essential to reflect on the implications for vulnerable and underserved patient populations.

This webinar is bringing together experts from the Georgia Cancer Center for Excellence at Grady Health System, the Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center, the Ohio State University, and The National Comprehensive Cancer Network® (NCCN®) to provide a comprehensive report on the reality of the pandemic from the front lines. Together, they will outline emerging policy implications towards a safe and equitable future for all.
