Manmeet Ahluwalia: 3rd Annual Disparities in Cancer Care and Health Equity Summit key takeaways
Manmeet Ahluwalia, Chief of Medical Oncology at Miami Cancer Institute, shared on LinkedIn:
“It was an honour to co-moderate the session at the Florida Society of Clinical Oncology 3rd Annual Disparities in Cancer Care and Health Equity Summit with Jorge J. García.
Thanks to Alex Avila, John Ruggiero, Natalie (Vargas) Monegro, Cassandra Smith and Emily Freeman, all exceptional panellists shared the best practices and what their organization was doing to reduce disparities.
Some of the key takeaways of the panel included:
- Stark disparities exist in cancer screening and prevention.
- The difference in genetics between various ethnicities and the need for molecular testing in minorities.
- The importance and opportunity to have more diverse patient population accruals for clinical trials.
- Rarely can a care disparity be fully addressed by a single stakeholder; hence the need to bring many stakeholders together to help reduce cancer care disparities.”
