Addressing Breast Cancer Disparities: A Comprehensive Approach to Health Equity

Abstract

This article addresses the persistent disparities in breast cancer outcomes across different racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic groups despite advancements in diagnosis and treatment. The disparities are rooted in various factors, including access to care, socioeconomic status, and cultural barriers. The article emphasizes the need for targeted interventions, such as expanding insurance coverage, mobile mammography units, and culturally tailored outreach programs to promote health equity. Achieving this requires comprehensive strategies addressing systemic and social determinants of health.
