What can be done to further reduce disparities in cancer care?
To further reduce disparities, a multi-faceted approach is needed. Policies should focus on expanding healthcare coverage and reducing financial barriers. Increasing funding for healthcare infrastructure in rural areas and enhancing telemedicine services can also improve accessibility. Additionally, promoting cultural competence among healthcare providers and addressing systemic biases are crucial steps. Public health campaigns aimed at raising awareness and early detection can also play a significant role in mitigating these disparities.
