Last week, our team spent the day at the Tennessee Capitol meeting with legislators, as well as stakeholders with The Tennessee Medical Association (TMA) and the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACSCAN), highlighting the essential role community oncology plays in delivering high‑quality cancer care across the state. We also shared the value SCRI Oncology Partners brings to patients and to Tennessee.
Discussions centered on several important bills this session, including biomarker testing coverage, prior authorization reform, the use of AI in insurance denials, and automatic downcoding parameters.
Thankful for the leadership of Dr. David Spigel, Dr. Melissa Johnson, and Dr. Meredith McKean, who represent our practice with such compassion and dedication.

TRUE OR FALSE: If you don't have a family history of cancer, you can't develop cancer. This is FALSE. While family history increases risk level, and some cancers are linked to inherited genes, many cancers develop with no family history of the disease. This is why keeping up with your regular recommended screenings and speaking to your doctor about any health concerns you may be having is so important.

We’re proud to see Dr. Sarah Premji and Dr. Erika Hamilton featured in ASCO Daily News, sharing their expertise on fertility preservation for premenopausal patients facing breast cancer. Their review highlights key strategies and reinforces the evidence supporting the safety of short‑course controlled ovarian stimulation for hormone receptor–positive patients. We’re grateful for their leadership and commitment to advancing patient‑centered care.

There has been an increase in the incidence of premenopausal breast cancer on a global scale, and although fertility preservation referrals have increased, it is still insufficient without universal adoption.
