After a cancer diagnosis, everything changes. Facing the diagnosis, treatments, and mental effects of mesothelioma can be extremely challenging. At Mesothelioma Hub, we are dedicated to helping patients and their families find the support and resources they need. That’s why we are pleased to share information on OncoPower, a free resource tool for cancer patients.
Who is OncoPower?
OncoPower provides oncologists and cancer patients with a platform to interact, give and receive advice, and interact with other patients, while also providing tools to navigate care. This digital health platform streamlines oncology care for patients and providers and enables oncologists to manage care closely in between office visits.
Ways OncoPower Can Help Mesothelioma Patients
OncoPower is a digital support group and clinical care platform. Patients can access oncologists to ask questions, seek second opinions and use their patient education suite. With remote patient monitoring, patients can have their medical teams right in their pockets.
Ask-A-Doc
This informational website has 250+ oncologists available 24/7 to answer questions or give second opinions through the OncoPower portal. “Ask-A-Doc” is one of the many free tools offered. Mesothelioma patients can upload lab reports, scans or images to the hub where they can then submit their details, questions, or comments directly to a physician. The oncologists can then reply to the patient’s questions and give their second opinion on the matter.
OncDrive
Patients with cancer such as mesothelioma can have multiple doctors from different departments or even different hospitals. Keeping up with all the scans, current medications, pathology reports, blood tests and other important medical documents can add unnecessary stress to an already stressful time. This is where OncoPower’s “OncDrive” becomes extremely useful. Patients and their families can utilize this resource to store all their medical reports, insurance information, and physician visit summaries all in one place. Simply upload the documents into each folder where you and your physicians can easily access it again at any time.
OncKlinic
With OncKlinic, cancer patients can report vitals or symptoms, access educational videos specific to their care, and receive physician notes. This aspect of OncoPower also offers at-home patient monitoring. Patients may be prescribed Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) by their doctors. These devices will be specific for your care needs and will be shipped to your home. Your physician will instruct you on how and when to use the devices. The OncKlinic makes it easy to report your vitals since all the RPM equipment is synced to your smart device via bluetooth. So whether your doctor wants to know your weight, blood pressure, temperature, blood oxygen levels, or more – you can easily transmit this information as if they were right next to you.
Cancer Network
Support and community are a huge part of what OncoPower has to offer. Connecting with others with similar or the same cancer diagnosis can help with the mental effects of dealing with a difficult mesothelioma diagnosis. Whether you share the same doctor, cancer, or even live in the same city, being there to uplift one another in times of need is important.
