Medicare

The following are the total number of Radiation Oncology Clinics/Centers that accept Medicare in your State, the number that have opted out of Medicare, and the total number excluded from participation in Medicare nationwide.

The diagram below shows all the Radiation Oncology Clinics & Centers across the country, represented by blue bubbles. The larger the bubble, the greater the concentration of providers in that area. Red bubbles represent Medicare-excluded providers, with the larger bubbles indicating a higher percentage of excluded providers in that region. You can change the bubble size to be based on exclusions from the Size menu.

What do Radiation Oncology Clinics/Centers do?

Radiation oncology clinics/centers use high-energy radiation, such as X-rays, to destroy cancer cells, shrink tumors, and alleviate symptoms for both cancer and some benign conditions. 

They achieve this through precise, customized treatment plans created by a multidisciplinary team of radiation oncologists, therapists, dosimetrists, and physicists, utilizing advanced technologies to target diseased cells while sparing healthy tissue.  

What they do

Patient Monitoring: The team regularly monitors patients to assess treatment progress and manage potential side effects. 

Cancer Treatment: The primary goal is to cure or control cancer, either by eliminating tumors or reducing the risk of recurrence after other treatments like surgery or chemotherapy. 

Tumor Control: Radiation can shrink tumors before surgery to make removal easier or to reduce pressure on surrounding organs. 

Symptom Relief: Radiation therapy is also used to relieve pain and other symptoms caused by cancer. 

Benign Condition Treatment: Beyond cancer, radiation oncology also treats certain noncancerous (benign) diseases. 

Personalized Treatment Plans: Radiation oncologists develop customized treatment plans that take into account the specific cancer type, its stage, and the patient’s overall health. 

Advanced Technology: Clinics utilize state-of-the-art technology, including linear accelerators, image-guided and motion-gated treatments, and specialized techniques such as radiosurgery, to precisely target radiation to the affected areas. 

Multidisciplinary Care: A team approach is used, with radiation oncologists working alongside other cancer specialists (such as medical oncologists and surgeons), radiation therapists, dosimetrists (who plan the radiation dose), and medical physicists to provide integrated, comprehensive care.
