Statistics show 1 in 2 of us will get a Cancer diagnosis, and at least 500,000 people in the UK are facing poor health or disability after treatment for cancer – that’s 25% of people who have already had a cancer diagnosis. Commissioners discriminate because complex needs include co-morbidities which are not recognised by the Private Service Providers. The National Health Service was created to ensure no one slipped through the net and received joined up Care from Cradle to Grave.
