Jennifer R. Cracchiolo, MD, is an Associate Attending on the Head and Neck Service at Memorial
Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), and maintains a high-volume head and neck oncology practice
focused in oral cavity, skin and salivary gland cancers. Dr. Cracchiolo also leads the Patient-
Reported Outcomes research program in the Department of Surgery at MSK. Through National
Cancer Institute (NCI) grant-funded research, she has worked to develop systems to collect and
report clinically meaningful, patient-centered outcomes data across all of surgical oncology.
This talk will explore the integration of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) across cancer care as a
standard of practice. Drawing on ongoing research and PRO implementation efforts at MSK, the
discussion will highlight how clinically meaningful, patient-centered data can enhance surgical
oncology and inform care across the cancer continuum.
