The initiative integrates advanced telehealth capabilities with precision oncology services, creating scalable partnerships between payers and providers while ensuring NCCN/ASCO guideline compliance.</p> <p>The strategic framework addresses four critical domains: network infrastructure development, clinical integration and credentialing, genomic testing vendor partnerships, and clinical trial referral systems. This 36-month implementation program positions the organization to capture the growing telehealth oncology market while delivering evidence-based, personalized cancer care at scale.</p> <p>Key success factors include robust payer partnership models, streamlined tele-oncology specialist credentialing, seamless genomic testing integration, and comprehensive clinical trial referral infrastructure aligned with current NCCN Guidelines Navigator™ and ASCO telehealth standards.</p> <h2 id="workbreakdownstructure">Work Breakdown Structure</h2> <div data-id="1885" class="table-wrap"><div
