Clinical integration involves several key components: 1. Multidisciplinary Teams: Teams of specialists from different fields collaborate to create personalized treatment plans. These teams often meet in tumor boards to discuss cases and decide on the best course of action. 2. Electronic Health Records (EHRs): EHRs allow for seamless sharing of patient information among healthcare providers, ensuring that everyone involved has access to up-to-date patient data. 3. Care Coordination: Care coordinators or nurse navigators help manage appointments, follow-ups, and patient education, ensuring that patients receive timely and appropriate care. 4. Standardized Protocols: Adherence to clinical guidelines and standardized treatment protocols helps in maintaining consistency and quality in care delivery.
