Abstract:

"An examination of health care utilization during the COVID-19 pandemic among women with early-stage hormone receptor-positive breast cancer", Andrew J Paladino 1, Kinsey Pebley 2, Mehmet Kocak 3, Rebecca A Krukowski 4, Teresa M Waters (HMP) 5, Gregory Vidal 6, Lee S Schwartzberg 6 7, Andrea N Curry 6, Ilana Graetz 8
Abstract:
Women undergoing treatment for breast cancer require frequent clinic visits for maintenance of therapy. With COVID-19 causing health care disruptions, it is important to learn about how this population's access to health care has changed. This study compares self-reported health care utilization and changes in factors related to health care access among women treated at a cancer center in the mid-South US before and during the pandemic.
