Absolutely. Patients in remission often require years of monitoring for late-term treatment effects and recurrence. If they have a second chronic condition, such as hypertension or diabetes, they qualify for APCM, allowing practices to bill for survivorship coordination.

AI screening protocols during routine check-in calls use natural language processing to identify secondary issues like neuropathy, cancer-related fatigue, or depression. These findings are flagged for the care team to ensure all qualifying chronic conditions are documented.
