Several challenges can hinder transparency in cancer care. These include complex medical jargon that can be difficult for patients to understand, time constraints during medical appointments, and disparities in access to healthcare resources. Additionally, some healthcare providers may be reluctant to share bad news or discuss uncertain outcomes. Overcoming these challenges requires a concerted effort from both providers and patients to prioritize clear, honest communication and utilize available tools and resources.
