The certification is bestowed on oncology executives who meet the standards and requirements of ACE, which includes completion of academic papers on oncology topics, and is given after the candidate passes a stringent interview process.
“I am honored to have been selected as a member of the very first class of Certified Oncology Administrators,” Montville said. “As I look to evolve in my career, this is the next step and one I intend to use at Lourdes Hospital to further all the work that continues to be done to take our already excellent oncology program to the next level.”
COA certification is for five years after which time a recertification process must be completed.
Montville joined Lourdes in 2017 and has more than 26 years of experience in oncology management and consulting, including operation of his own oncology consulting company, Medical Management Group.
