NEW CENTRE FROM SPRING 2012

Pictures of proton therapy equipment and interior facilites are from other ProCure proton therapy centres.

ProCure New Jersey Proton Therapy Center will serve the New York metropolitan area and international patients can also apply through MHL's online enquiry service.

ProCure is committed to ensure that as many cancer patients as possible receive the benefits of proton therapy. At the ProCure Proton Therapy Center in Somerset, New Jersey/Metro New York, patients will receive exceptional and personalised care with the most advanced proton therapy technology available.

Proton therapy facilities

ProCure New Jersey Proton Therapy Center will have four treatment rooms: two inclined-beam rooms (exclusive to ProCure proton-therapy centres), a fixed beam room and a 360° gantry room.

Real-time imaging technology in treatment rooms optimises treatment precision and a robotic patient-positioning system adjusts automatically for position and immobilisation.

Electronic record system for physicians and the Care Team and medical liaison services to facilitate the management and scheduling of ancillary medical care.

ProCure joins with Princeton Radiation Oncology and CentraState Healthcare System

Since ProCure are committed to ensure that patients also receive seamless care beyond proton therapy, Princeton Radiation Oncology and CentraState Healthcare System have joined them to develop this new centre.

Patient services

Patient and family support services include:

Assistance with insurance coverage and financial management.

Patient and family support groups.

A knowledge centre and library with resources for patients and loved ones.

A playroom for children.

A concierge to assist patients with personal needs, such as finding housing and restaurants, pointing out local attractions and connecting with other patients

Costs and insurance coverage

ProCure has financial counselors ready to help guide you through the financial process. Proton therapy is covered by many private insurance plans, Medicare and many state Medicaid programs.

ProCure is currently establishing relationships with US national insurers and local providers to make the financial process easier for patients. International patients will need to consult their insurers, however awareness of proton therapy is gaining ground rapidly, as more centres are under construction or planned around the world.

The cost of proton therapy varies according to the diagnosis and the extent of treatment needed. Because coverage evaluation for proton therapy depends on each patient's specific tumour type and insurance plan, the length of time it takes to determine coverage varies from case to case.
