Crystal Run Healthcare Earns Recertification for Cancer Care from American Society of Clinical Oncology

Crystal Run Healthcare recently earned recertification from the Quality Oncology Practice Initiative (QOPI®) Certification Program, an affiliate of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). The QOPI Certification Program certifies outpatient hematology-oncology practices that meet the highest standards for quality cancer care.

Crystal Run Healthcare first earned this recognition in 2010, at which time it was one of the first 16 community cancer care practices in the United States to earn this certification from ASCO. Crystal Run Healthcare continues to voluntarily submit its oncology program for assessment every three years. 

The QOPI Certification Program recognizes that Crystal Run Healthcare has not only scored high on the key QOPI quality measures, but also meets the rigorous safety measures established by ASCO and the Oncology Nursing Society (ONS). 

We are proud to announce that we have met the program’s core standards in all areas of treatment, including:

• Treatment planning.
• Staff training and education.
• Chemotherapy orders and drug preparation.
• Patient consent and education.
• Safe chemotherapy administration.
• Monitoring and assessment of patient well-being.

About QOPI: QOPI is a voluntary, self-assessment and improvement program launched by ASCO in 2006 to help hematology-oncology and medical oncology practices assess the quality of the care they provide to patients. More than 800 oncology practices have registered in the QOPI program. ASCO’s programs are designed by leaders in the profession and give practices the ability to continuously improve the quality of care they provide. The QOPI Certification Program helps practices determine whether they are providing the best treatment and care possible to their patients and demonstrates a commitment to excellence and ongoing quality improvement in the hematology-oncology outpatient practice.
