What is the Role of Insurance in Equitable Access?
Insurance is a critical factor in ensuring equitable access. Adequate insurance coverage can:
1. Reduce Financial Burden: Lowering out-of-pocket costs makes cancer care more affordable. 2. Improve Access to Preventive Services: Insurance can cover screenings and vaccinations, aiding in early detection and prevention. 3. Facilitate Access to Advanced Treatments: Coverage for cutting-edge therapies can provide patients with the best possible outcomes.
