What are the challenges in accessing cancer healthcare services?
Despite advancements in cancer care, several challenges persist in accessing healthcare services:
Geographical Barriers: Patients in rural or remote areas may have limited access to specialized cancer care facilities. Financial Constraints: The high cost of cancer treatment can be a significant barrier for many patients, despite insurance coverage. Cultural and Language Barriers: These can affect the quality of care received by patients from diverse backgrounds. Healthcare Infrastructure: In some regions, inadequate facilities and a shortage of trained professionals can limit the availability of comprehensive cancer care.
