Planning: Improving Access to Breast Cancer Care (Knowledge Summary)

The Breast Health Global Initiative, National Cancer Institute, UICC and PAHO have developed a series of 16 brief publications, called Breast Cancer Knowledge Summaries.

 

The Knowledge Summaries for breast cancer control provide resource-stratified pathways to facilitate decision making by policy makers, healthcare administrators and advocates engaged in implementing breast cancer control programs at various resource levels. The Knowledge Summaries emphasize coordinated, incremental program improvements across the continuum of care to achieve the best possible outcomes at each resource level. The sixteen Knowledge Summaries for breast cancer control address planning, prevention, early detection, diagnosis, treatment, palliative care and policy and advocacy.
