    Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is essential in oncologic care, aiding in treatment decision-making and improving patient outcomes.

  • 2

    Despite increased testing rates, 40% to 50% of patients still lack NGS testing, highlighting significant disparities in access.

  • 3

    Longer time to NGS testing is observed in academic sites compared to community sites, raising concerns about adherence to guidelines.

  • 4

    Guideline-concordant care (GCC) is associated with improved survival rates and reduced healthcare costs, emphasizing its importance.

  • 5

    AI and clinical pathways tools may enhance guideline dissemination, but careful validation is needed to avoid widening disparities.
