Relation between narrow networks and providers of cancer care Research brief (Leonard Davis Institute of Health Economics) Yasaitis, Laura, author. Bekelman, Justin E., author. Polsky, Daniel, author. Delivery of Health Care -- economics Health Insurance Exchanges Medical Oncology Neoplasms -- therapy Quality of Health Care Narrower provider networks offered on the health insurance exchanges are more likely to exclude oncologists associated with high-quality National Cancer Institute (NCI)-Designated Cancer Centers. These findings suggest that narrower oncology networks, while offering lower premiums, may involve a tradeoff between cost and quality of cancer care.
