Is oncology care in the UK equitable?

Is oncology care in the UK equitable? This is the question IPSOS set out to answer in a self-funded piece of research.

The work cites primary research findings, as well as calling upon secondary sources of data and the work of IPSOS’ patient advocacy partners: Tenovus Cancer Care and Strive for five.  

Key topics:

• What does equitable care really mean? How does this link to person and patient centric care provision?
• Is the NHS set up to fail in the provision of person centric care? How does this impact the delivery of equitable oncology care in the UK?
• What is the patient experience? Hear accounts of the lived experiences of oncology care from patients, highlighting how and for whom these experiences can differ.
• View from the experts in policy and advocacy – the steps to begin to mitigate some of the challenges uncovered
