Janice Cowden, MBC Patient Advocate, shared National Breast Cancer Coalition post on X, adding:
“Without the patient voice, HCPs, payers, regulators, and health systems cannot fully understand what matters most to people actually living with cancer. Patient preference is not one-size-fits-all. It varies widely based on goals, values, QoL, risk tolerance, and lived experience. Diverse patient voices in decision making are necessary.”
Quoting National Breast Cancer Coalition’s post:
‘Care must be realigned with its central purpose: improving how long and how well people live. This means recognizing that high-quality cancer care extends beyond tumor control to the psychosocial, relational and existential realities of living with cancer.’
