Thomas Hofmarcher: 5 Ways to Reduce Cancer Care Inequalities in Europe by Cancer Patients Europe

Thomas Hofmarcher, Research Director at IHE – The Swedish Institute for Health Economics, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Very happy to be part of the launch of the Call to Action: 5 Ways to Reduce Cancer Care Inequalities in Europe by Cancer Patients Europe – CPE at a high-level event at the European Parliament hosted by MEP Tomislav Sokol.
Following a powerful introduction by MEP Sokol and his priorities in the current mandate, Antonella Cardone and Jacqueline Daly provided opening remarks and background to the Call to Action. This was followed by a panel discussion moderated by Tamsin Rose to present the five calls.
  • Prevention and diagnosis: me, IHE – The Swedish Institute for Health Economics
