Every #RadOnc in the United States is officially caught between a #ROCR and a hard place. Read our @NeimanHPI supported study @IJROBP to learn why bundled #Medicare models like #ROCR (Radiation Oncology Case Rate) are important to consider and potential areas for improvement.

And with EHR, I suddenly had to do everything myself. I used to tell nurses to call in or fax a prescription to the pharmacy for me. I was told I had to enter the rx myself with all the associated drop down menus and clicks. I used to tell my front desk to order labs, CT's, MRI's... for me. Now I have to order them myself and "remember" if the patient is on metformin or has a cardiac device. But the worst thing for #radonc was the requirement to enter an "intent to treat order." Regurgitating what is already in my consult note and radiation prescription. It's required for billing and does absolutely nothing for patient care

Credentialing delays mean canceled visits and slower care. Dr. Join Luh (@j_luh) explains how AB 2457 can reduce backlogs and improve patient access. PAC proudly supports AB 2457.

Thank you to #ROCR Act champion @RepJohnJoyce for today's question to @SecKennedy about radiation oncology’s payment crisis. We appreciate that Sec Kennedy committed to work with Dr. Joyce & the radonc community to protect access to cancer care, especially in rural areas. @CMSGov @DrOzCMS @HHSGov #ASTROAdvocacy ow.ly/h7Tm50YNF7L @HouseCommerce @repguthrie @RepMGriffith

Radiation lymphoma studies that are published in rad onc journals are better cited, despite lower impact factor. Lymphoma studies reporting on radiation negative clinical outcomes are more likely to be published in non-rad onc and higher impact factor journals, and by non-rad onc authors: tinyurl.com/rjsaifi

Ensuring that patients get the care they need is an important aspect of every radiologists' job. This starts with clear communication that reassures the patient that your recommendations are the right next steps for them. Join @AlyssaCubbison as she explores how expertise plays a huge role in this step in patient care in our first #ACRYPS column, YPS: Early to Rise. #ACRBulletin 🔗 bit.ly/42BIoAK @RadiologyACR @OrmsbyMD @koolkpMD @DSmethermanMD

It's time to meet your #ACRYPS Radiation Oncology Representative, Aaron Bush, MD (@AaronBushMD). As a #RadOnc, he's passionate about ensuring the field can provide high quality cancer care for decades to come. Learn more about his priorities for the year ⬇️ ⬇️

TODAY! Interested in learning about the application of RT in benign conditions? A new webinar will occur on Sept 17th 4:30-5:30PM ET as part of the ongoing RadOnc Educational Webinar Series. *CME event. Register: ow.ly/spJ950WG4Mh Program info: ow.ly/b4CL50WG4Mj

In conjunction with the Patel et al retrospective study on the cost of telehealth in #radonc, ACRO member Dr. @j_luh has authored the editorial "Telehealth in #RadiationOncology: Time to Refine, Not Just Expand" now published on #CURiE. Read it here: cureus.com/articles/407131-t…

Mark your calendars for Sept. 7th, 2025, as the radiology community will come together to celebrate the first ever World Radiotherapy Day. This day hopes to raise awareness around the world to reduce disparities preventing patients from getting access to radiotherapy. See the @ACRBulletin about @RadiologyACR's involvement as well as why everyone in the House of Radiology should participate! bit.ly/45DdolG

Thank you Dr. Bush and Dr. Basree for your insights & support.

Fantastic opportunity to connect with ASTRO Government Relations team & learn about ASTRO’s advocacy engine and mechanisms to elevate #RadOnc voice in DC! It’s flexible, & 100% manageable with resident schedule. Reach out to me or @AaronBushMD for questions! @ARRO_org ☢️👏🏽

One of the highlights of my residency! Encourage all trainees interested in improving oncology care thru advocacy to apply. Feel free to DM me if have questions about the fellowship experience! @ARRO_org @RadiologyACR @ASTRO_org @ACROresident

🧵 ABR Oral Board Exam Update On Monday, July 14, @ABR_Radiology leadership met with stakeholders from the @ASTRO_org community to discuss the oral board exam process. It was a productive and collaborative session. #RadOnc 1/5
