from the Publisher Greater Boston Publisher: Michael Jones H to the August issue of MD News Greater Boston. Managing Editor: Maggie Neff E LLO, AN D WE LCO M E This month's cover story focuses on the Saint Anne's Hospital Regional Cancer Center. This past spring, Saint Michael Jones Anne's Hospital — a Steward Family Hospital — and the PUBLISHER Hawthorn Oncology Center, an outpatient cancer center Greater Boston based in the New Bedford area, combined services to MJONES@MDNEWS.COM offer patients access to comprehensive, integrated and 508-888-1502 coordinated community cancer care across a greater geographic area. We caught up with John Yang, MD, and Raymond Dugal, MD — Saint Anne's medical oncology and radiation oncology physician leaders — as well as John Niedzwicki, MD, PhD, and Elliott Anderson, MD, of the Dartmouth site's medical oncology team, to learn what this expansion means for referring physicians and their patients. In the milieu of changes medical professionals are experiencing as a result of the national healthcare overhaul, one of the standout adjustments is increased physician responsibility for overall patient health. The experts in our feature on Page 10 recommend practicing within an integrated care model to share accountability for patient health with other providers while improving outcomes. We appreciate your input regarding each issue of MD News and always look forward to adding your practice's updates to our print or online publications.
