Dr. Bob Carlson and Joan McClure Explain how the NCCN Guidelines Work

The National Comprehensive Cancer Network is a non-profit organization, created by an alliance of 26 of the United States leading cancer centers. The NCCN developed their "Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology" to help improve the quality and effectiveness of cancer care across the country. At the National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship's Spring 2015 Cancer Policy Roundtable, Dr. Bob Carlson and Joan McClure of the NCCN sat down with us to talk about their organization's Clinical Practice Guidelines. In this clip, Carlson and McClure explain the organization's principles and detail the thorough process of evaluating new cancer treatments and how they make their recommendations for the advancement of quality cancer care. The NCCN guidelines have been "translated" to easy-to-understand language in order to inform patients and caregivers about all of the available treatment options for their disease. They are available for free on the NCCN Patient website: http://www.nccn.org/patients/
