RADIATION BUSINESS SOLUTIONS to Seek Partnerships at ASTRO Annual Meeting for Cancer Care Expansion

Evaluating New Partnerships for Anoma Cancer Collective at ASTRO Annual Meeting

On September 14, 2026, Radiation Business Solutions (RBS) announced plans to engage with potential partner organizations at the upcoming American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) Annual Meeting. This strategic gathering is part of RBS’s efforts with the Anoma Cancer Collective (ACC), a nonprofit organization aimed at fortifying community cancer care across the United States.

The Mission of Anoma Cancer Collective

ACC serves a critical role in supporting cancer centers in states like Alabama, Texas, Florida, Georgia, and Oklahoma. As it seeks to expand its reach, it is committed to exploring new opportunities to strength cancer care in underserved areas. The organization's unique approach is particularly essential as many cancer centers grapple with challenges such as increasing operation costs, workforce shortages, and complicated administrative demands.

Dan Moore, CEO of RBS, expressed the urgency in supporting cancer center leaders who strive to sustain their facilities. He stated, "Many cancer center leaders have spent their careers building something that means far more than a business. They've built trusted community resources that patients depend on every day.” He emphasized that today’s market pressures make sustainability and capital access issues vital considerations for these institutions.

A Nonprofit Approach to Growth

What sets ACC apart from traditional acquisition models is its nonprofit status. Rather than seeking mere growth for profitability, ACC focuses on preserving access to essential health services, empowering local leadership, and ensuring the continuity of community cancer centers. This model is especially critical for centers facing challenges in maintaining their independence amid an evolving healthcare landscape.

Medical professionals, feeling the strain of these pressures, are actively seeking meaningful solutions for their institutions. Dr. Hejal Patel, Chief Medical Officer of ACC, shared insights into their vision: "We weren't looking for an exit strategy. We were looking for a long-term solution. ACC gave us the opportunity to become part of something bigger, while continuing to lead our centers and serve our patients the way we always have." This sentiment echoes throughout the community, where the potential loss of local cancer programs could severely impact patient care.

Focused Growth Strategy

ACC’s intentional growth strategy means only a select number of organizations will be considered during this expansion phase. This exclusive focus aims to ensure that each partnership aligns with ACC's mission and enhances the quality of care provided to patients. Cancer center leaders eager to explore this unique model are invited to connect with the RBS team at ASTRO Booth #1319, where they can learn more about potential collaborations.

For those unable to attend the event, the organization welcomes confidential discussions through its website, www.radiationbusiness.com, underscoring its commitment to transparent and constructive dialogue.
