Multiple Myeloma: Transplant Treatment Path

Process Improvement White Paper

To identify key opportunities for process and communication improvements, ACCC conducted regional process improvement workshops at four transplant centers and invited one to two referring practices to participate in the discussion. Through four interactive workshops, clinicians, transplant coordinators, and administrators identified ways to improve communication and clinical workflow processes as patients with multiple myeloma undergo ASCT. The management of multiple myeloma remains clinically complex, but effective changes can be made to improve how patients receive care that is co-managed between the primary oncologists in the community and the transplant center.

Actionable takeaways from these workshops are summarized in this publication that includes sections on:

• Results of the project needs assessment survey
• Patient education & engagement
• Patient preparation for ASCT
• Psychosocial support & financial counseling
• Care coordination & medical co-management
• Process improvement resources
