In December 2014, the James opened its new 1.1 million square foot, 306-bed state-of-the-art cancer hospital, the third-largest in the U.S. The leadership of the OSUCCC-James is making a major investment in the creation of the Center for Cancer Health Outcomes and Value Based Medicine; a national search for the Founding Director is now underway. The Director will be a physician investigator in oncology-related field with national recognition as a thought leader in cancer quality and safety, outcomes research, reimbursement methodologies, workforce analysis, population health management, patient centered oncology medical homes, and/or risk reduction and management.
