Supporting your patients
with whole-person care
MyCancerJourney is a private advocacy service that facilitates shared decision-making. We partner with the care team to provide patients and their loved ones practical, social, emotional, and treatment decision support.
Our advocates can give your patients the time and space they need to be fully informed and prepared to traverse the road ahead. They spend time learning about your patient’s preferences and goals for treatment, they make sure the patient and their family fully understand their treatment options and the associated side effects and trade offs, and they act as a liaison to ensure that everyone is aligned on what matters most to the patient.
By ensuring the patient's personal needs are met, MyCancerJourney improves patient satisfaction and allows you to focus on delivering exceptional medical care.
Truly Personalized,
Patient-Centered Care
Through a simple referral, your patients gain access to a dedicated board-certified patient advocate that can provide support and resources to address their physical, emotional, financial, and social needs—all at no cost to them.
When it comes to cancer care, no single option is right for everyone, which is why medicine has embraced a shared decision-making model, giving patients an active voice in their care.
That’s why our advocates are provided with Capire360, a treatment decision support tool that provides tailored, actionable information to those with a new cancer diagnosis. It reveals outcomes from other people of the same age, sex, ethnicity, and health status who have faced the same diagnosis, giving the patient the confidence to make well-informed treatment decisions with their care teams.
By combining compassionate advocacy with personalized real-world data, we offer a whole-person approach to cancer care—empowering patients to face their journey with confidence, clarity, and peace of mind.
Patients who work with MyCancerJourney arrive more informed, prepared, and confident, leading to more focused and efficient conversations. When patients are well-informed and feel confident in their decisions, they are more satisfied with their care.
Our observational studies found 55% of patients who engage with MyCancerJourney chose a treatment plan differing from guidelines, improving quality of life with a similar expected 5-year survival rate.
MyCancerJourney Fosters Better Outcomes:
Too often, life-changing treatment decisions are made with incomplete information.
We empower your patients by guiding them through their cancer journey with insights based on real-world outcomes data from other patients with the same characteristics—age, sex, race/ethnicity, health status, and diagnosis.
This approach helps them make treatment decisions aligned with their personal goals, values, and quality of life considerations. Our advocates also provide data on how treatments have affected others with similar profiles.
Those who use MyCancerJourney gain a clearer understanding of their prognosis and treatment options, leading to more realistic expectations and informed decisions. As a result, they experience greater satisfaction with their care and are less likely to pursue suboptimal treatment paths.
Cancer remains one of the most expensive healthcare diagnoses, with costs continuing to rise. Studies show that nearly half of cancer treatments do not provide the expected benefit. By equipping your patients with information about their options and the outcomes others have experienced and ensuring their values, preferences, and goals for care are considered when the care plan is crafted, MyCancerJourney helps patients with cancer make smarter decisions, improving overall outcomes and reducing treatment costs.
Traditional treatment plans rely on clinical trials that are largely based on younger, healthier, and less diverse populations, leading to disparities in care. MyCancerJourney addresses this by using data from patients the same age, race, sex, and comorbidities, providing a more equitable and personalized treatment experience.
We are truly patient centered. Each MyCancerJourney member is matched with a dedicated advocate who can help connect your patient to specialists and specialized health centers in their area and help determine whether a center of excellence is the right choice for them. They can assist in finding a second opinion or enrolling in a clinical trial if needed. Additionally, they can recommend functional medicine doctors, palliative care providers, and nutritionists to help manage and alleviate side effects.
They can also connect patients to emotional and social support services. These may include medical financial navigators, specialized counselors or social workers, support groups, caregiver support options, insurance navigators, and nonprofits,
Our goal is to level the playing field and empower patients with the clarity and peace of mind needed to face cancer head-on with confidence
