Challenges in Modern Cancer Care — Dr. Amar Rewari on Into the Body Podcast

Dr. Amar Rewari joins the Into the Body podcast to discuss prior authorizations, AI in medicine, health policy reform, and keeping patients at the center of cancer care.

Dr. Amar Rewari joined host Dr. Aleksandra Filipovic on the Into the Body podcast for a wide-ranging conversation on the challenges facing modern cancer care — and what it takes to fix them.

Drawing on his experience as Chief of Radiation Oncology at Luminis Health and his deep involvement in health policy through ASTRO, Dr. Rewari discussed how administrative barriers like prior authorizations create real treatment delays for cancer patients. The conversation also explored the role of AI in clinical decision-making, the tension between financial sustainability and patient-centered care, and how physicians can drive meaningful policy change from the front lines.

At its core, the episode is a reflection on what it means to heal — not just patients, but the systems that serve them.
