As a leader in cancer research, Karmanos is able to offer patients access to innovative treatments and clinical trials that are often times not available anywhere else.
To offer hope and longer life to patients with all types of cancer, Karmanos offers the latest types of therapy through our clinical trials program. Through clinical trials, we are creating new knowledge about how therapies fight cancer and provide national leadership in testing these new therapies.
We understand that cancer is a complex disease that demands complex care. We provide each patient with a dynamic, carefully constructed treatment plan focused on their specific cancer and their unique needs.
We listen to you to design a plan that provides you with respect, compassionate care and is responsive to your emotional and practical concerns.
The Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute has been named one of 37 cancer centers nationwide and the only cancer center in Michigan to which Optum recommends its payers refer their clients for oncology care.
With more than 3,000 payers using Optum in the U.S., a trusted information and technology-enabled health services business that delivers integrated solutions for health systems, more than 62 million people benefit from its tools. The company’s Centers of Excellence networks recognize clinically superior providers “and offer cost-effective care for cancer,” among other specialties. Optum and a panel of clinical experts across the country build criteria and evaluate health systems annually to ensure they provide their payer-group clients with health institutions that demonstrate high-quality care and benefits to patients, which include accurate diagnoses, lower costs for the patient, and higher survival rates.
