Osara Health joins CancerX as founding member

Osara Health is a leading US digital health organization transforming the care experience including how and when care is accessed. Their expanding oncology platform is accessible by patients and caregivers, guiding behavior change for better health outcomes and wellbeing, thereby contributing to decreased healthcare expenses. Most notably, Osara has published a study demonstrating the program offers a clinically validated return to work intervention, with cancer ranking as the number 1 healthcare expense for organizations on a national scale.

CancerX, co-hosted by Moffitt Cancer Center, Digital Medicine Society (DiMe), Office for the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC), and Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health (OASH), is a public-private partnership originating from President Joe Biden's Cancer Moonshot initiative. It aims to cut cancer death rates by 50% in 25 years and enhance the patient experience.

Together with the founding members and partnership organizations, Dr Raghav Murali-Ganesh, Radiation Oncologist and CEO of Osara Health said they will help set CancerX's strategic direction, collaborating with oncology and digital health leaders to achieve shared goals.

"Being a founding member of CancerX validates Osara Health's national-scale contribution to addressing the pressing issue of the cancer care experience in the US. Since our inception, our focus has been steadfast on turning cancer patients from reactive recipients of care to proactive participants in their care and we are passionate about equitable access to an enhanced care experience. Joining CancerX Moonshot represents recognition of these efforts, and we look forward to continuing to set ambitious goals and work relentlessly to achieve them as part of the Cancer Moonshot community."

"Multi-stakeholder collaboration is critical to harness the potential of digital innovation in the fight against cancer, and we're honored to partner with Osara Health to achieve the ambitious goals of CancerX," said Smit Patel, Associate Program Director at DiMe. "Through this impressive collaboration, we will establish best practices, build capacity, and demonstrate the impact of innovation on the life of every person on a cancer journey.”
