10th Association for Value-Based Cancer Care Summit & Education Program Announces New Format

CRANBURY, N.J., Sept. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Starting October 13, the Association for Value-Based Cancer Care (AVBCC) will present its 10th Annual Summit as a 10-week series with approximately 30 WEBside chats. The WEBside chats will feature top influencers; future trends; balanced opinions; real-time, real-world information; and unfiltered discussions. Each chat will run for approximately 90 minutes on alternating Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and/or Friday sessions delivered at 8:00 am ET and rebroadcast at 4:30 pm PT.

"In the new world of technology-supported face-to-face conversations, AVBCC is taking a leading role in creating WEBside chats," explained Burt Zweigenhaft, PhD, DLitt, AVBCC Co-Founder and Chair. He went on to say, "In the past, a fireside chat was a very intimate way to discuss and share expertise, opinions, and observations." Thereby, combining the technology of today with the traditions of the past, AVBCC has created the WEBside chat.

Although this year's Summit is a different format from years past, it will still present the fast-paced, intensive sessions guided by the expertise of more than 150 faculty speakers, panelists, and subject matter experts, thereby providing stakeholders in attendance a thorough understanding of the evolution of the value equation as it relates to the cancer care ecosystem. This will be combined with the success and experience of the 90-minute WEBside chat sessions related to the COVID-19 crisis.

Registration is now open for this Summit with limited space available. The cost to participate in the 10th Annual Summit is $599 per person and includes all WEBside chats and the archived sessions for up to 1 year. The live sessions and replays are powered by LynxCast.
