About Model Oncology
Model Oncology partners with community health systems to build and operate sustainable oncology programs. The organization does not function as a conventional consultancy that delivers a strategy and exits, nor as a traditional management services organization administering back-office functions at a distance. Model Oncology embeds within each partner system, operating alongside local teams and assuming accountability for program outcomes over the long term.
The organization's work encompasses program design, physician recruitment, pharmacy strategy, payer contracting, and the operational infrastructure required for communities to deliver high-quality cancer care close to home. Model Oncology holds itself to the standard of a genuine, accountable partner rather than a vendor.
