Knowing how it works and what to expect can help patients and caregivers better prepare for treatment and make more informed decisions about care .

Join Margaret Rausa, EviCore’s Vice President, Oncology Strategy and Growth, and Dr. Rajanish Singla, EviCore’s Chief of Radiation Oncology, who will provide an overview of Radiation Oncology for health plan representatives. Their discussion will include:

  • The major categories of Radiation Oncology treatment
