Event Series
Achieving Equity in Cancer Pain Management
The inaugural webinar of this new series provided an overview of the complex issues involved in achieving equity in cancer pain management, and it highlighted the importance of multilevel approaches to address these inequities.
Three experts addressed barriers to equitable delivery of cancer care, including institutional and structural inequities, race-related attitudes in patient-clinician interactions, and clinical care guidelines that inform cancer pain evaluation and management.
This webinar was co-hosted by the NCI Behavioral Research Program and Healthcare Delivery Research Program.
