• Invest in diagnostic capacity
• Direct access to diagnostic capacity
• Enhance screening uptake
• 28 days to diagnosis (to replace 2WW)
• Education – Undergraduate, postgraduate, CPD

The Lancet Oncology:
“The expanding role of Primary Care in Cancer Control”
“For a long time, the role of primary care in cancer was
largely seen a peripheral, but as prevention, diagnosis,
survivorship, and end-of-life care assume greater
importance in cancer policy, the defining characteristics of
primary care become more important”
The Lancet Oncology, Vol. 16, No. 12
Cancer – Where from here?
The Lancet Oncology:
“The expanding role of Primary Care in Cancer Control”
“The strengths of primary care—its continuous, coordinated,
and comprehensive care for individuals and families—are
particularly evident in prevention and diagnosis, in shared
follow-up and survivorship care, and in end-of-life care. ”
The Lancet Oncology, Vol. 16, No. 12
Cancer – Where from here?
The Lancet Oncology:
“The expanding role of Primary Care in Cancer Control”
“recommendations should be implemented by all
stakeholders involved in cancer care…work should start
now to ensure that patients get the optimum care to prevent,
receive a diagnosis of, and survive cancer, and the best
possible care should they die from the disease”

Cancer Care – conclusion
• To improve incrementally we need to compete
• To improve exponentially we need to collaborate
Cancer Care – conclusion
“Addressing non-communicable diseases (NCDs) is
critical for global public health, but it will also be good
for:
• the economy
• for the environment
• for the global public good in the broadest sense.
If we come together to tackle NCDs, we can do more
than heal individuals— we can safeguard our very
future.”
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon
Cancer Care – conclusion
“One person can make a difference,
and everyone should try.”
