Vermont to model rural regional cancer center plan
A $150000 planning grant from the National Cancer Institute funds University of Vermont led regional efforts to integrate cancer care across 16 Vermont hospitals. Dr Richard J Albertini directs the program with Dr G Stephen Brown as clinical director, aiming to empower local physicians to manage 70 percent of Vermont’s 1200 to 1400 annual new cancer cases with enhanced consultation and education. The plan envisions a Vermont Regional Cancer Center Council, an external advisory group, and collaboration with the American Cancer Society and state health bodies to create a rural cancer model possibly extending to New Hampshire and Maine.
