NCODA was established as a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization in 2015 to help solve the problem of fragmented oncology care created by mail-order pharmacies, primarily for outpatient anti-cancer medications. The organization has grown from 2 employees in 2015 to 24 employees going in 2022, 9 of which are locally employed at our 9 Albany Street office with remote employees, working from the Albany, NY area, Oklahoma, Colorado, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Washington, Florida, Virginia, and Alabama. NCODA started by developing a set of Quality Standards for cancer centers to implement, and we expanded the idea by creating and perfecting the Going Beyond the First Fill model for the dispensing of oral anti-cancer medications. NCODA collaborated with cancer centers, payers, and employer groups to identify the standards for oncology healthcare practices to create a more patient-centered approach by outlining best practices for the provision of oral and intravenous (IV) cancer treatment. By adopting the NCODA Quality Standards, a road map to success, cancer centers are prepared to take a larger role in each patient’s adherence and overall care.
Our Mission is to empower the medically-integrated oncology team to deliver positive, patient-centered outcomes by providing leadership, expertise, quality standards and best practices.
Our Vision is to be the world leader in oncology by building a patient-centered medically-integrated community whose focus is to innovate the continuity of cancer care so every patient receives the maximum benefit from their cancer treatment.
Guiding Values:
1. Patient-Centered
2. Always Collaborative
