Opieka onkologiczna w Wielkopolsce na tle zmian systemu ochrony zdrowia w Polsce – cz. 1. Kompleksowość świadczeń, koszty systemowe i finasowanie

In all countries of the world, an increase in expenditure on health care is recorded. Cancer has become the main health and social problem whose effective solution requires the development of a comprehensive cancer control program. The Law on the National Programme for Combating Cancer is an example of the comprehensive approach in Poland. Treatment of cancer in Poland is based on a network of public full-profiling dozen cancer centers and oncology units located at university hospitals and local government. An example of a systemic approach at the regional level is “Wielkopolski program rozwoju radioterapii i onkologii” adopted by the provincial government.
