Rural patients experience worse cancer survival outcomes than urban despite similar incidence rates, due in part to significant barriers accessing quality care. Community hospitals non-metropolitan/rural areas play a crucial role providing care who desire and are able receive locally. However, rural community typically face challenges comprehensive lack of resources. The University Kentucky's Markey Cancer Center Affiliate Network (MCCAN) is an effective complex, multi-level intervention,...
Abstract Purpose The Commission on Cancer (CoC) establishes standards to support multidisciplinary, comprehensive cancer care. CoC‐accredited programs diagnose and/or treat 73% of patients in the United States. However, rural may experience diminished access programs. Our study evaluated distance hospitals by CoC accreditation status, rurality, and Census Division. Methods All US were identified from public‐use Homeland Infrastructure Foundation‐Level Data, then merged with CoC‐accreditation...
Abstract Introduction As the rural–urban cancer mortality gap widens, centering care around needs of rural patients presents an opportunity to advance equity. One barrier delivering patient‐centered at hospitals stems from limited analytic capacity leverage data and monitor patient outcomes. This case study describes experience a public health surveillance system aiming fill this within context network. Methods To support implementation novel network model intervention in Iowa, Iowa Cancer...
Abstract Background: Different survival metrics have different applicability to clinical practice and research. We evaluated how choice of metric influences assessment cancer among American Indian Alaska Native (AIAN) people relative non-Hispanic Whites (NHW). A secondary objective was present variations in AIAN by age, sex, stage, Health Service (IHS) region. Methods: Five-year calculated using the North Association Central Cancer Registries America dataset. people, compared with NHW four...
Abstract Purpose Despite lack of survival benefit, demand for contralateral prophylactic mastectomy (CPM) to treat unilateral breast cancer remains high. High uptake CPM has been demonstrated in Midwestern rural women. Greater travel distance surgical treatment is associated with CPM. Our objective was examine the relationship between rurality and surgery Methods Women diagnosed stages I–III 2007 2017 were identified using National Cancer Database. Logistic regression used model likelihood...
