This C-Session's guests are Pat Garcia-Gonzalez, CEO of The Max Foundation (Max).  In addition, Jerry Radich, MD, of Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center.  Both share the amazing story of Max, and how it's reaching and treating cancer patients on a global scale.   Max is a nonprofit global health organization that provides cancer patients in low and middle-income countries with access to lifesaving treatment and care. Today, Max provide services to over 30,000 patients in more than 70 countries, including access to over 8 million daily doses of medicine yearly. Max’s patient services include efforts to expand access to molecular diagnostics, educational workshops, and one-on-one care.  The Max Foundation supports physicians in diagnosing and monitoring patients in areas where patients have no access or cannot afford diagnostic testing. Max’s leading access to treatment model harnesses the power of effective partnerships with local hospitals, cancer centers, NGOs and Ministries of Health, as well as global drug manufacturers, diagnostic companies, and international distributors to ensure that every patient receives the right treatment at the right time. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/randall-broad/support
