Roswell Park Named to 'Great Oncology Programs' List

Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center has once again been named to Becker’s Hospital Review’s 100 Hospitals and Health Systems with Great Oncology Programs, an annual list of centers that are national leaders in patient care, cancer outcomes and research.

“Hospitals included on this list offer patients comprehensive cancer care involving teams of specialists, participation in clinical trials and personalized treatment programs,” the news outlet notes in a press release. “Many organizations on this list are driving forces in the fight to end cancer as we know it.”

In selecting facilities for the Great Oncology Programs feature, the Becker’s editorial team analyzed data from sources including the BlueCross BlueShield Association Blue Distinction Center program and National Cancer Institute designations.

“The institute is one of the oldest in the country to earn designation from the National Cancer Institute as a Comprehensive Cancer Center, and it is one of five centers in New York to receive designation from Blue Cross Blue Shield as a Blue Distinction Center for Complex & Rare cancers,” Becker’s notes in its description of Roswell Park.
