Our affiliations are tailored to meet the needs of each program and begin with an initial cancer program assessment with a report of customized findings and programmatic recommendations. Our spectrum of service and affiliation models includes:
Clinical Research and Education Affiliations
Our team conducts regulatory and clinical research audits and supports policy development, access to Duke Investigator initiated and cooperative group trials, Institutional Review Board support, Duke Faculty presentations, tumor boards and CME/CE programming.
Cancer Program Development Affiliations
We work with our cancer affiliates on program development and enhancement by defining best practices while advancing quality. We offer access to evidence-based guidelines and practices, robust educational programming, CME/CE and research program development and support. Service differentiators include multidisciplinary models of care, subspecialty programmatic advisory support including surgery, palliative care and other supporting disciplines as well as clinical research offerings. As a comprehensive service offering, co-branding as a Duke Health affiliate is available to our cancer program affiliates.
Clinical Affiliations
For regionally-based hospitals, clinical affiliations may be an option and include all of the services of our cancer program affiliation in addition to Duke Physician coverage for affiliated oncology services.
