Dr. Christopher D'Avella, from the Penn Medicine’s Abramson Cancer Center, spoke with the Journal of Clinical Pathways regarding the collaboration between the Penn Medicine’s Abramson Cancer Center and Flatiron Health. 

This collaboration utilized Flatiron Assist™ to enhance Penn Medicine’s Abramson Cancer Center's pathway program, aiming to streamline its integration into clinical workflows. Through a pilot study in thoracic oncology, they focused on improving the tool's speed, user interface, and introduced a hot button feature for quicker access to common treatment pathways. 

Results, which were also presented at ASCO 2023, showed a significant increase in provider engagement with Flatiron Assist™, leading to improved efficiency with reduced session lengths and increased adoption rates.
