Cancer care poses unique challenges in Asia & the Global South HE Dr Wahid Ali Said Al Kharusi presented a comprehensive overview on the unique challenges faced by Asia in tackling cancer care. Today, in the post pandemic era, countries in Asia are forced to fight a tougher fight against cancer, with challenges such as rebuilding networks, addressing backlogs, driving policy change and adapting to the digitalisation of more and more health services. To overcome these challenges is an uphill battle; one that cannot be undertaken alone. Thus, partnerships between non-governmental organisations, civil society organisations and the government should be the way forward. Dr Wahid highlighted that these parties should look into empowering patients to advocate for themselves, engaging with on-the-ground community members and educating the right people, i.e, decision makers in order to be better equipped to face the challenges of cancer care in Asia.

In a recent interview with Euractiv, Thomas Hofmarcher, Research Director at the IHE - The Swedish Institute for Health Economics, sheds light on the pressing issue of meeting the targets outlined in Europe's Beating Cancer Plan (#EBCP), emphasizing the concerning lack of progress among EU member states. 💡 The discussion delves into the intricate dynamics between political prioritization and financial constraints in #cancer care. A recent IHE report highlights the stark disparities in access to cancer treatment across the EU, underscoring the urgent need for action. For instance, only half of the patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer in Finland, Poland, or Romania receive guideline-recommended cancer medicines. 🔍 These findings emphasize the imperative for comprehensive strategies in cancer care, coupled with more strategic allocation of healthcare resources. By prioritizing high-value treatments and addressing systemic inequalities, we can strive towards ensuring equitable access to quality care for all European patients. 📖 Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/ezvb4pst #Healthcare #CancerCare #EUHealth
