Article Abstract

The evidence to support the benefits of exercise for people living with and beyond cancer is robust. Still, exercise oncology interventions in the United States are only eligible for coverage by third-party payers within the restrictions of cancer rehabilitation settings. Without expanded coverage, access will remain highly inequitable, tending toward the most well-resourced. This article describes the pathway to third-party coverage for 3 programs that address a chronic disease and utilize exercise professionals: the Diabetes Prevention Program, Supervised Exercise Training for Peripheral Artery Disease, and Cancer Rehabilitation. Lessons learned will be applied toward expanding third-party coverage for exercise oncology programming.

Introduction: While many publications have been made on burnout of oncologists, few publications have been made on oncologists in France, and none focuses on positive markers of their psychological health. Our study is a national study that studies the role of exercise mode, determinants and consequences of positive markers of psychological health of oncologists in France.

Methodology: The survey was disseminated to oncologists (n=606) by the learned societies or cooperative groups of the different cancer specialties from May to July 2022.

Purpose: Evidence-based medicine (EBM), precision medicine and interdisciplinarity are becoming increasingly important in medical education. The purposeful connection between EBM and interdisciplinary work is given in the context of a tumor board, since therapy decisions are discussed here in an interdisciplinary team based on current evidence-based guidelines. To date, there has been little focus on either topic.
