WELCOME TO THE
2014 CANCER CENTER
BUSINESS SUMMIT
WELCOME
We welcome you to the 2014 Cancer Center Business Summit. The theme of the 2014 Summit is Building the Oncology System of the
Future: Transforming Patient Care Through Data Transparency and Analytics.
Virtually everyone agrees that the time is now to seriously reexamine our fragmented, expensive healthcare system and to innovate
sustainable approaches to curing its ills. At the center of this activity is the patient, as the ultimate consumer of health care services. Until
recently, patients largely have been shielded from health care costs by health insurance and governmental payment programs with low
copays/deductibles or first dollar indemnity coverage. Patients have also been relatively unaware of quality differentials because of the
lack of standard reporting on meaningful quality measures.
Today, as a result of governmental and private market “transparency” initiatives, an increasing amount of quality and cost information
is becoming available to the public; and patients have greater incentives to make cost effective choices about their preferred site and
providers of oncology care. One of the new dynamics driving oncology consumerism is new health insurance product designs that involve
higher patient co-pays for more expensive care options and limited, tiered and exclusive provider networks. Site of service differentials
and provider-based co-pays are also impacting patient choices. Also driving oncology consumerism is increased activism by employer
self-funded plans that are offering healthy lifestyle incentives and, in some cases, disincentives for unhealthy behaviors. Oncology
consumerism is further emboldened by disruptive information and medical technologies that give patients enhanced self-care capability,
with access to a trove of health information. These include electronic health monitoring and internet or home based support services,
including specialty pharmaceuticals.
While the “science” of quality and value measurement is in its infancy, some innovative oncology organizations are collecting and analyzing
reams of potentially actionable data. These data analytics are an engine of evidence-based change for the benefit of consumers—but in
directions that are not always intuitively obvious or welcomed by the status quo.
During this time of disruptive change, cancer care providers are understandably concerned about reimbursement reductions; about
being excluded from payer contracting networks; about patient incentives to use less expensive providers; about losing referral sources
as primary care physicians and other specialists align with specific networks; about the pressure to give up practice autonomy and
become employees of hospitals or large multi-specialty groups; about the impact of new value-based, alternative payment arrangements
(like shared savings, bundled payment, episode of care, and capitation arrangements); about the impact of ACOs, medical homes and
other clinically integrated care organizations; and about the trend toward industry consolidation that threatens their professional autonomy.
In this new consumerist and cost conscious health care environment, there are critical questions to be answered about what innovative
strategies and solutions are available to community oncology providers to survive and thrive.
At the Summit, you will have the rare opportunity to learn from industry leaders and your peers about the changes occurring in the cancer
care marketplace and how cancer care organizations are responding to them. The Summit faculty consists of experienced cancer care
executives, physician leaders, and leaders from the financial, business, payor, and legal communities. Their diverse perspectives provide
a unique synthesis of the most important issues facing cancer care providers today.
As we begin the 2014 Summit, we give hearty thanks to all of our wonderful faculty members, advisors, and sponsors who have given
generously of their time, talent, and resources to make this year’s Summit a success. We also thank you for attending and adding your
voice to this unique and timely discussion. It is our honor to host you. We hope that you will enjoy the Summit, forge new relationships,
and learn practical tips to help build a durable and sustainable oncology system of the future.
Thank you,

The convergence of market consolidation, coverage expansion, cost shifting, alternate payment initiatives and scientific
advances in the treatment of cancer are forcing oncology providers to re-invent their fundamental business and care delivery
models. Panelists will examine the implications of this systemic transformation from the following perspectives:
• The healthcare sector as a whole
• The oncology profession
• The community hospital-based cancer program
• The academic medical center cancer program
In this session the challenges and opportunities created by this systemic transformation will be explored and a consensus
vision for the future state of cancer care delivery will be offered.

BREAKING NEWS: Interest Surges in Medicare Bundled Payment Initiative. Modern Healthcare. July 31, 2014. Much of
the activity to date in bundled payment has been associated with the Medicare Bundled Payments for Care Improvement
(BPCI) initiative, which has consisted principally of cardiac and orthopedic procedures with a hospital inpatient component.
But, could oncology be next in line for transformation to bundled pricing or some other form of alternate payment? In this
session, panelists will explore from differing perspectives the current major initiatives in oncology alternate payment. What
programs are in place now, what are their objectives and what has been their experience?
• Medicare: The CMMI Oncology Care Model (OCM)
• Oncology alternate payment from a national health plan perspective
• ASCO’s Consolidated Payment for Oncology Care (CPOC)
• Oncology Case Rates in an advanced managed care setting
• Do employers have an opinion about alternate payment for employee cancer care?

Studies prove that patients who are activated and engaged in their care achieve better outcomes at lower costs with higher
rates of satisfaction. As such, there are new requirements for providers to establish a more comprehensive relationship with
their patients and provide more services to support patient centered care. In this session, the panelists will discuss real
world strategies and challenges to engaging patients and in providing patient centered oncology care including:
• The new requirements and how new payment models need to evolve
• The challenges of engaging patients and the differences between different patient segments
• The landscape of available tools and the need for a more coordinated approach to effectively deliver new services

It has become painfully obvious that today’s data infrastructure is inadequate to support the needs of the healthcare sector. It is widely
accepted that the future state of healthcare delivery will, or at least should, be anchored in objective evidence gained in real time from
everyday clinical experience. The potential for clinical and economic benefit of data analytics is particularly compelling in oncology,
with the advances in medical science, particularly the new drug pipeline and the advent of the “omics” (genomics, proteomics).
What is the business environment for development of new data and what progress has occurred so far? What actionable analytics are
available right now – today, and what are the aspirational potentials of massive data analysis? Topics addressed include:
• The concept of “actionable” data analytics
• The economic and regulatory system hurdles that new diagnostics must overcome to make new data possible
• Past approaches using circulating tumor cell technology development to reveal an economic “death valley,”
where good science can become lost
• Case study of the present capabilities of data aggregation and analysis to inform clinical decision making
• A future that realizes the aspirational goal of massive data interrogation leading to the discovery and
incorporation of subclinical and/or the presently unseen into the process of oncology care design.

Those who attend this session will learn why obtaining a
credible valuation opinion is critical to their oncology
transactions, and they will leave the session with valuable
insights into--and tips on addressing-- the hottest valuation
topics now affecting oncology arrangements. Topics will
include: when and how much can oncologists be paid for
supervision of infusion services? How is 340B drug pricing
accessed and how can it add value for oncologists? What
are the special issues relating to pharmacies? What are the
fundamentals of, and current trends in, PSA models and
co-management agreements (and what are their pros and
cons)? What other arrangements/revenue streams are out
there and what valuation issues do they raise? What are the
key areas of regulatory risk where parties to these transactions should tread carefully?
Our panelists will also provide insight on the different
ways that valuation consultants are engaged and how the
parties to a transaction can most effectively participate in
the valuation process. Active interaction with our panelists
is encouraged.

The Oncology Medical Home has been held up as an
example of promise and peril in this age of oncology
medical payment reform. The Aetna contracting and
clinical team have been through several generations of
pilot programs across the U.S., and are now building a
durable and holistic oncology medical home construct
for national rollout. This presentation and panel discussion will present their experiences with building on
evidence, marrying clinical and administrative data,
and creating metrics and shared savings arrangements
that make sense for both quality improvement and cost
control for practices, payers, and most importantly,
for patients. The underlying premise is that this
current model for creating an oncology medical home
will allow community oncology practices to thrive with
unparalleled patient care under changing payment
methodologies, and at the same time, demonstrate their
value when compared with other delivery models in a
market or region.

As more medical oncology practices have migrated from a
physician office setting to a hospital setting, payors have
reported cost increase related to those moves. At the
same time Medicare fee schedules for radiation oncology
practices have been shrinking relative to hospital based
settings. And the 340B program has seen volume growth
as the shift of sites of service has accelerated.
The panel will focus on the data identifying site of service
differentials, and discuss government and market reactions
to the site of service shift. There will also be a discussion
of legal issues and potential changes to the 340B program.
We will discuss both sustainability of the differential and
how we may see it change over the next few years.

The shift in chemotherapy drug product from intravenous
to oral form continues at record pace. Today, some 25%
to 30% of drug revenue that was previously associated
with intravenous drug administration in the community
oncology practice setting is now subject to an oral drug
alternative. And given the pharmaceutical development
“pipeline” of orals, the impact on community practice
revenues is expected to climb to 35% to 40% in the
near term. What should community oncologists do
in light of this dynamic? Is an in-office dispensing
pharmacy a viable option? Do specialty pharmacies
have a role? What impact can be expected from
“closed end hubs?” Panelists will explore the challenges
and implications of this paradigm to patient care,
patient experience, patient adherence and practice
financial viability.

Bundles, episodes, and case rates. What has been the
experience with pricing oncology care under such fixed
rate methodologies? What is the scope of services included in these bundles? Have these pricing programs had
an influence in physician ordering patterns or resource
consumption? What have been the effects of these
programs on the patient experience? Finally, have
these programs reduced the overall cancer spend in
any discernible way?
This session will present and discuss the results from
two recent industry surveys: the 2014 National Practice
Benchmark and the 2014 National Hospital Oncology
Benchmark Study. Discussion will focus on using benchmarks to manage today’s oncology service. Participants
will be provided with benchmarks to immediately apply
to their own oncology practice setting.
The panelists will address these and more questions
from the their experience with alternative payment methodologies in the initial consultation/formulation of a plan
of care, in the comprehensive treatment of lung cancer,
in the delivery of radiation therapy across multiple
malignancies, and in the case rates for a broad range
of cancers treated by the oncology provides within a
large scale multispecialty medical group/IPA.

An oncology system of care requires coordination among
all oncology stakeholders. Some oncology groups are
interested in clinically integrating and aligning with a local
hospital for market positioning and capital access purposes. This session will present a case study of a hospital
affiliation transaction in which an oncology group desires
to remain independent, but to align with a local hospital
to position for future success. We will explore, among
other things:
Burt Zweigenhaft, Vice Chairman, Onco360 Oncology Pharmacy
• The planning process for the transaction
• Transaction structural options, such as
Professional Service, Management and
Co-Management arrangements
• Financial modeling and assessing transaction
feasibility
• Applicable business and regulatory
considerations
• Converting to hospital licensed services
and qualifying sites for 340B pricing
• Valuation considerations
• Key deal-maker/breaker terms
What will be the impacts to and responses from the
drug sector with regard to health reform; new drug
breakthroughs in the pipeline; migration to orals;
conversion of many drugs from brand to generic;
alternate site-of-care? What effect on the business
model for oncology providers, manufacturers, pharmacy
benefits management and specialty pharmacy. In this
session, panelists will address and shed light on these
paradigms and changing dynamics.
www.CancerBusinessSummit.com
What will the drug supply chain look like in the
oncology system of the future? What are managed care
payers thinking? What is the future of drug buy and bill?
Will there be formularies? Will drug co-payments and
coinsurance deductibles present greater burdens on
patients? What are Limited Distribution Networks
going to look like in future?

In the preceding session, the elements of framing and
transacting an oncologist alignment were examined in
the context of a case study. Applying the working
assumptions of the same case study, panelists in this
session will describe the process and the elements of
implementing the newly transacted relationship.
How do you go about integrating services and actually
making the agreed upon terms of the relationship
operational? Topics to be explored in this session
will include:
This year the Cancer Center Business Summit and the
Journal of Oncology Practice® (JOP) solicited business
case studies that highlight problems that oncology
practices face and the strategies that practices used to
address them with a focus on tangible issues related to
oncology care delivery and/or pertinent to the mechanics
and business of oncology practice. Three case studies have
been selected from the submissions for presentation in this
session. Come to this session and learn from your peers.
• Integrating an Ambulatory Oncology Pharmacy
Specialist into a Community Medical Oncology Practice
• Implementation of Pharmacy Service Using
