In the wake of episode-based reimbursement, let’s take a look at uptake of hypofractionated radiation courses absent such financial incentives. This retrospective look at Medicare beneficiaries receiving over 85K breast and 71K prostate radiation courses shows a meager 12-13% annual increase in hypofractionation (i.e. ≤20 and ≤30 treatments, respectively) from 2015-2017, still representing only 42% of breast and 17% of prostate cases. | Gillespie, JAMA Netw Open 2020
