What does ACOR mean in ONCOLOGY

The Association of Cancer Online Resources (ACOR) is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing reliable and up-to-date cancer information, resources, and support services to patients, survivors and caregivers. ACOR connects people around the world who are touched by cancer through online discussion groups, online portals for medical information, educational materials and resources.

No, ACOR does not provide medical advice. Although we strive to bring you the most accurate and up to date information regarding cancer diagnosis and treatment options available, it is important that you always discuss your individual questions or concerns with your personal healthcare practitioner.

While ACOR does not offer any direct financial assistance for individuals dealing with cancer, we can help you find other charitable organizations that may be able to provide assistance to help offset expenses related to treatment or care. We also have an extensive library of resources about different types of financial aid available for those affected by cancer.

Currently, ACOR does not offer a hotline service but we do have an extensive library of information on our site covering topics related to different types of cancers, treatments options, helpful tips on how to cope with a diagnosis as well as additional resources pertaining to research updates related to new treatments or medications available.
