In 2018, ACCC developed the Financial Advocacy Services Guidelines to support cancer programs and practices by proactively addressing patients’ financial concerns along the cancer care continuum, so patients can access high-quality care for a better quality of life. As the healthcare landscape continues to change and the role of oncology financial advocates evolves, the network sought to create new guidelines in 2022 for cancer programs and practices, using a collaborative, consensus-based process.

"[These guidelines] are helping the financial navigators or the health systems across the United States, trying to come up with a standard of what services should we be providing—what are the standards, how are going to get there, what do we want everybody to try to come together to be more standard—because we don’t have really standards throughout this whole area yet.”

Please note the Financial Advocacy Services Guidelines will be made available fall 2022.
