As a result, there may be too few oncologists to meet the population's need for cancer care. To help address the challenges in overcoming this potential crisis of cancer care, the National Cancer Policy Forum of the Institute of Medicine (IOM) convened the workshop Ensuring Quality Cancer Care through the Oncology Workforce: Sustaining Care in the 21st Century in Washington, DC on October 20 and 21, 2008.CancerTreatmentMedical personnelHealth planningCancerTreatment.Medical personnel.Health planning.616.99Patlak Margie1607028Levit Laura A1810851National Cancer Policy Forum (U.S.)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910967394303321Ensuring quality cancer care through the oncology workforce4362374UNINA
