Ajay Aggarwal: 10 key pressure points in NHS cancer care current system

Ajay Aggarwal, Clinical Director National Cancer Audits, shared a post on LinkedIn:                               .

“NHS cancer care is at a tipping point. Our Lancet Oncology commission highlights 10 key pressure points in our current system and proposes several high value low cost solutions to support the new government to address these time critical issues in the short and long term. However it will require a detailed cancer plan and acknowledgement that excellence in cancer care relies on systems and not on individual technologies or therapies. We need to invest in workforce and capital infrastructure but also research that will help us to deliver the excellent treatments we already have in a timely, equitable and efficient manner. Only then will we start to accelerate improvements in cancer outcomes and patient experience.

Thanks to our expert clinical and academic co-authors and institutions.
