In haar jaarlijkse onderzoeksrapport 'Een kritische kijk op het kankerbeleid' houdt de VLK het Nationaal Kankerplan van minister van Sociale Zaken en Volksgezondheid Laurette Onkelinx voor het eerst grondig tegen het licht. Het resultaat is kritisch maar voorzichtig optimistisch: 'De 32 initiatieven uit het plan zijn zeker een stap vooruit. Maar hopelijk volgt er snel een beter onderbouwd kankerplan, mét een langere termijnvisie en meetbare doelstellingen,' aldus de VLK.

Indexation
Electronic books ; Neoplasms ; Quality control ; Quality of Health Care ; Therapeutics ; United StatesAbstract: We all want to believe that when people get cancer, they will receive medical care of the highest quality. Even as new scientific breakthroughs are announced, though, many cancer patients may be getting the wrong care, too little care, or too much care, in the form of unnecessary procedures.
How close is American medicine to the ideal of quality cancer care for every person with cancer? Ensuring Quality Cancer Care provides a comprehensive picture of how cancer care is delivered in our nation, from early detection to end-of-life issues. The National Cancer Policy Board defines quality care and recommends how to monitor, measure, and extend quality care to all people with cancer. Approaches to accountability in health care are reviewed.
What keeps people from getting care? The book explains how lack of medical coverage, social and economic status, patient beliefs, physician decision-making, and other factors can stand between the patient and the best possible care. The board explores how cancer care is shaped by the current focus on evidence-based medicine, the widespread adoption of managed care, where services are provided, and who provides care. Specific shortfalls in the care of breast and prostate cancer are identified. A status report on health services research is included.
Ensuring Quality Cancer Care offers wide-ranging data and information in clear context. As the baby boomers approach the years when most cancer occurs, this timely volume will be of special interest to health policy makers, public and private healthcare purchasers, medical professionals, patient advocates, researchers, and people with cancer.
