Quality Improvement in Breast Cancer Testing
In 2018, fifteen ACCC Cancer Program Members were awarded grants from Pfizer, Inc. for quality improvement (QI) projects focused on improving the quality of care for patients with breast cancer. Grantees planned and implemented projects that supported increasing the rates of guideline-concordant BRCA testing for this patient population. Hear from grantees about their findings and experiences in successfully orchestrating a QI project and expanding BRCA testing for eligible patients with breast cancer. Learn about open opportunities to participate in an ACCC-supported QI project, then see how ACCC's online self-assessment tools can help identify areas of improvement at your program or practice.
