The ICON care model is patient centric and seeks to uphold the dignity of all people in need of oncology care.

The cost of oncology care in South Africa has increased sharply in the past 10 years.  This disadvantages patients who simply cannot afford the high cost of services. The ICON care model makes high quality care and treatment more affordable to more people. It also cuts waiting times, relieves the burden on the public sector and reduces the administrative burden for healthcare funders and providers.

Benefits of the ICON model

• Highest quality of care within the financial constraints of funding vehicles

• Cost effective care in both curative and palliative settings
• A dedicated oncology specialist network embracing the ICON principles
• Reduced administrative burden for healthcare funders and providers
• Pre-approval for the majority of treatment regimes
