Facilitating Access to Treatment

Ensuring Affordable Cancer Care for All
Many cancer patients are forced to delay or forego proper treatment due to the high out-of-pocket costs associated with diagnostic tests, procedures, and treatments. These financial burdens can make essential cancer care inaccessible, impacting health outcomes and survival rates. At the Indian Oncology Foundation, we are dedicated to removing these barriers and ensuring that every individual has access to comprehensive, affordable cancer treatment.

  • Our approach focuses on providing cancer care that is:

  • Affordable: We work to reduce the financial strain on patients by offering co-payments for diagnostic tests and treatments, ensuring that cost is not a barrier to life-saving care.
  • Accessible: By reaching both urban and rural areas, we aim to make quality cancer care available to everyone, regardless of location or income.
  • Comprehensive: Our support extends beyond treatment to include screenings, diagnostic tests, and prescription drugs.
  • Cost-effective: We partner with healthcare providers to offer discounted prescription drugs and other essential treatments, ensuring that patients receive adequate care without overwhelming expenses.
  • Our Key Initiatives Include:

  • Co-payments for diagnostic tests: To ease the financial burden of initial cancer screenings and evaluations, making early detection more accessible.
  • Discounted prescription drugs: Providing access to necessary medications at reduced prices to ensure continuous and affordable treatment.
  • Support for high-cost procedures: Offering financial assistance for procedures that are crucial for effective cancer care, such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
  • Outreach programs: Extending services to underserved populations across urban and rural regions to ensure that no one is left behind.

By addressing the financial challenges faced by cancer patients, the Indian Oncology Foundation ensures that quality cancer care is within reach for all, regardless of their economic circumstances. Together, we are working towards a future where no one has to choose between their health and their financial well-being.
