Evernorth Precision Path
A personalized, data-driven approach that supports plans, members and providers through the entire cancer journey
Cancer care is complex.
Delays are costly.
When it comes to cancer treatment, every moment counts. In fact, every four-week delay in treatment after a diagnosis can increase mortality by up to 8%1.
But the cost of covering these treatments is also rising, and by 2030, costs are projected to reach $246 billion2.
Members struggle to navigate their diagnosis and treatment, and providers face administrative burdens along with trying to close gaps in care for their patients — All while plans struggle to provide connected coverage at a reasonable cost.
A faster, more coordinated, member-centered experience.
Evernorth Precision Path® enables earlier cancer screening, diagnosis and treatment while reducing provider burden. Your members gain 24/7 access to a multidisciplinary care team, reducing ER visits and hospitalizations while improving outcomes.
