What is the impact of access to resources on cancer outcomes?
Access to resources has a profound impact on cancer outcomes. Patients with adequate access are more likely to receive early diagnosis and timely treatment, which can significantly improve survival rates and quality of life. Conversely, lack of access can lead to delayed diagnosis, limited treatment options, and poorer prognosis. Ensuring that all patients have access to the necessary resources is critical for improving overall cancer outcomes and reducing health disparities.
