survivorship-related health disparities

Survivorship-related health disparities refer to differences in the long-term health outcomes seen among cancer survivors from various backgrounds. These disparities can stem from factors like socioeconomic status, access to quality healthcare, race, or geographic location. As a result, some groups may experience poorer quality of life, more health problems, or higher risk of cancer recurrence compared to others. Addressing these disparities is crucial to ensure all survivors receive equitable follow-up care, support, and resources to improve their overall health and well-being after treatment.
