Achieving Equity in Cancer Pain Management

View other webinars in this series.

In this webinar, three experts explored systems-level solutions for providing cancer pain management to patients. Specifically, they discussed an actionable framework for addressing disparities in cancer care, particularly the ways in which patient navigation and care coordination can be implemented. The webinar concluded with a moderated panel discussion.

The Achieving Equity in Cancer Pain Management Webinar Series is hosted by the NCI Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences. The series uses a multilevel perspective to examine the factors that individually and jointly affect disparities in the quality and outcomes of cancer pain management, and considers approaches to reduce the unequal burden of suffering.
