The goals of this program are to improve efficiency and patient outcomes through use of a bundling payment system, and to improve management of patients with advanced laryngeal cancer. After hearing and assimilating this program, the clinician will be better able to:
1. Explain the steps involved in building a treatment bundle.
2. Identify effects of high-risk patients on bundle pricing.
3. Recognize the implications of bundling for clinicians, insurers, and patients.
4. Consider the evidence on approaches to management of stage III and IV laryngeal cancer.
5. Choose appropriate candidates for laryngeal preservation among patients with advanced laryngeal cancer.
