UnitedHealth Group - Study: First-of-its-Kind Online Chemotherapy Approval Protocol Accelerates Cancer Patients' Access to Proven Treatments

MINNETONKA, Minn. (Oct. 20, 2016) — 

A study of a new web-based tool piloted with select medical oncology practices in UnitedHealthcare's care provider network in Florida found 99 percent of cancer patients received approval for chemotherapy drug regimens immediately or within 24 hours. The pilot also reduced cancer drug costs by 20 percent compared to UnitedHealthcare's cancer drug costs nationally, and all treatments were evidence-based and in alignment with the recommendations of the nation's leading cancer centers.
