Two Clinical & Research Centers of Excellence Announced

October 7, 2022

Pheo Para Alliance is proud to announce that Clinical & Research Center of Excellence (CRCE) designations have been awarded to Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City and  The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio.  The two centers are the first to receive the CRCE designation, which recognizes centers that provide high-quality, multi-disciplinary adult and pediatric care and have a comprehensive pheo para research program.  The program now includes ten Clinical Centers of Excellence and two Clinical & Research Centers of Excellence.

The Center of Excellence program provides an environment where patients receive the best possible pheo para care through a geographically diverse network of clinical centers.  In addition to clinical and wellness services, the centers provide professional and lay education in the areas they serve, work with the Pheo Para Alliance in its efforts to continually improve the lives of those affected by the illness, and support research efforts.

The program offers two levels of designation.  The Clinical Center of Excellence (CCE) designation recognizes centers that provide high-quality, multi-disciplinary adult and pediatric care and facilitate pheo para and related research.  The CRCE designation recognizes centers that provide the same high-quality, multi-disciplinary adult and pediatric care as CCE’s, but also have a comprehensive pheo para research program.

Congratulations to both centers!
