24. The Florida Society of Clinical Oncology
FLASCO was formed as a statewide 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to
facilitating and promoting multidisciplinary efforts to improve patient care in
Florida. FLASCO continues to make strides in promoting excellence in care of
patients afflicted with cancer and hematologic disorders and leads efforts to
respond to policies and legislation that threaten to compromise patient access to
quality cancer care. FLASCO is gaining momentum as more professionals use us
as the catalyst to develop partnerships, share knowledge, and stand together to
demonstrate strength and determination to move forward in the battle against
cancer.
FLASCO consists of over 2,500 members that include physicians and their
supporting staff, allied healthcare, and industry representatives that represent
the oncology professionals of Florida. FLASCO will continue to be recognized as a
nationally respected state professional society as we stand together as “the
Voice of Oncology in Florida”.
