No, the STAR Program includes conventional evidence-based medical protocols that should be part of every cancer program (as it is for cardiac and orthopedic rehab). The STAR Program includes protocols for an interdisciplinary approach that includes physical and occupational therapy and speech and language pathology evaluations and treatment plans. Rehabilitation healthcare providers may decide to partner with integrated or complementary healthcare providers.
