Patients can play an active role in advocating for healthcare equity by:
1. Participating in Clinical Trials: Enrolling in clinical trials can help ensure that diverse populations are represented in cancer research, leading to more inclusive and effective treatments. 2. Engaging in Advocacy: Joining patient advocacy groups can amplify their voices and influence policy changes that promote equitable cancer care. 3. Educating Themselves: Staying informed about their health and treatment options empowers patients to make informed decisions and advocate for their needs.
