RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
For over half a century, the National Institute of Oncology has been the center of epidemiological, organizational, methodological, therapeutic, research and educational development of Hungarian oncology. It is comparable with any national oncology institute in any country, with the only compassive cancer center in Hungary and the surrounding countries, with excellent international recognition and a patient satisfaction rate above 95%. The Institute's secret is the professional excellence and human standing of its employees.

ONGOING EU PROJECTS



INTENT – USING GUIDELINES AND BENCHMARKING TO TRIGGER SOCIAL ENTREPERNEURSHIP SOLUTIONS TOWARDS BETTER PATIENT-CENTRED CANCER CARE IN CENTRAL EUROPE (2017-2020)
The INTENT project aims to find solutions for innovative patient-centered cancer care. It targets and involves various types of actors: cancer care providers, patients and policy makers. The aim is to work with these groups to create a better understanding of how to interpret the patient-centered approach and identify ways for improving cancer care in central Europe. Beyond the activities leading to an innovative cancer care model, the project will issue policy recommendations, provide an online benchmarking tool, identify priorities for improving existing systems on local level and create a virtual know-how centre.
The centre will collect and provide good practices, benchmarking results and a pool of innovative ideas to all interested users. Tools and knowledge provided by INTENT will improve quality in cancer care and mobilise health care managers, clinicians and other staff involved. It calls for positive change and thus unlocks the innovation potential of public services.
The duration of the INTENT project is between 01.07.2017 and 06.30.2020. This project is supported by the Interreg CENTRAL EUROPE Programme funded under the European Regional Development Fund. The project has 9 partners from 4 central European countries working on 4 thematic work packages. The National Institute of Oncology in Budapest is the leader of WP3 focusing on ‘Piloting in Central European Regions’.
