12Anthem 2015 Annual Report
Advancing better health care shouldn’t break the bank. If health is well managed with a focus on improv-
ing outcomes and a holistic approach to patient care, we can achieve affordability for employers, con-
sumers and providers. Anthem is working to remove the financial roadblocks to healing, managed care
and better health.
CANCER CARE QUALITY PROGRAM
With more cancer treatment options, medical research and evidence available to us than ever before,
it can be difficult for providers to keep up with advancements and identify treatment options that take
into account clinical benefit and cost. The Cancer Care Quality Program does just that. It identifies can-
cer treatment pathways based on current medical evidence, peer-reviewed published literature and
consensus guidelines, and uses this information to support oncologists in identifying cancer treatment
therapies that are highly effective and provide greater value. The Cancer Care Quality Program, devel-
oped with our subsidiary AIM Specialty Health, is the first oncology value-based payment model to be
used by a group of health insurers for almost all of their commercial and Medicare Advantage members.
