March 26, 2026 Webinar: ACS NNRT Pulse Survey Trends
3:00 PM – 4:00 PM ET
The Principal Illness Navigation (PIN) codes, introduced in January 2024, opened a new pathway to strengthen and sustain patient navigation services. To understand how this opportunity is unfolding nationwide, the American Cancer Society National Navigation Roundtable (ACS NNRT) conducted Pulse Surveys in 2024 and 2025 examining awareness, adoption, and implementation plans for PIN reimbursement.
On March 26, 2026, colleagues from ACS NNRT and ACS CAN will present key findings from both surveys. The discussion will spotlight national trends, practical benefits, and persistent barriers cancer programs are encountering as they work to operationalize PIN reimbursement in oncology navigation.
Join us to explore the 2025 results, compare them with 2024 benchmarks, and consider what these insights signal for the long-term financial stability and sustainability of patient navigation programs.
