In response to the rapid changes in health care delivery and the expectation to "do more with less," AACI created a forum for physician clinical leaders to address common challenges. These challenges include clinical services reimbursement, integrating electronic medical records with other cancer center IT services, assimilating clinical research and clinical programs to increase trial accrual, and developing performance metrics.
