Access to proton therapy continues to face significant challenges, from reimbursement restrictions to complex referral pathways. What will it take to break these barriers and create a more seamless treatment journey for patients?

Join IBA and NAPT for a dynamic discussion with two leaders who’ve made meaningful strides in overcoming these obstacles:

🔹 Dr. Lane Rosen will share the success story of how Willis-Knighton Health System (WKHS) achieved state-level reimbursement in Louisiana. Learn about the strategic steps taken to pass legislation aligning with ASTRO guidelines, and what this victory means for patients and providers in the region.

🔹 Kristin Heath will reflect on the journey of the University of Florida Health Proton Therapy Institute—from inception to impact. She will discuss how referral patterns were built, what’s at stake when access is limited, and the importance of sustained advocacy for equitable cancer care.
