From 2010 to 2019, the Association of Cancer Care Centers (ACCC) fielded an annual “Trending Now in Cancer Care Delivery” survey to its membership to gain insights into challenges faced and—most importantly—solutions to address those challenges. Members shared that during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, they did not have the time and/or resources to take this annual survey. This led ACCC to identify alternative ways to collect these data.

In 2020, ACCC conducted a series of focus groups to produce the 2020 Trending Now in Cancer report. In 2023 and 2024, ACCC hosted a series of interactive sessions at its yearly Annual Meeting & Cancer Center Business Summit (AMCCBS). Insights and solutions from these discussions were used to develop the 2023 and 2024 Trending Now In Cancer Care Part 1 and Part 2 reports.

Discussions from the ACCC 51st AMCCBS held from March 5 to March 7, 2025, were used to develop the 2025 Trending Now In Cancer Care Part 1 report. Download Part 1 for a look at trends in navigating tech enablement to expand patient access in cancer care, adoption of AI and BI solutions, growth opportunities in oncology, and strategic oncology partnerships and affiliations.
