Hall.Trivandrum, Kerala, India :Researchman Publishers,2012.2 p. ;Cancer research from the bench, to the bedside and beyond continues to make major strides leading to decreased mortality, an increased number of survivors and improved quality of life. What is less apparent is how well these research findings are translated into high quality equitable, evidence-based care and an effective, acceptable mechanism for monitoring care. Australian cancer health professionals are among the world’s best; helping to save lives, promote good health, prevent disease and improve quality of life. Whilst this suggests that evidence-based health care and quality management have been generally adopted there are noticeable areas of concern, especially around access to and continuity of care. For over two decades, the influence of the social determinants of health has been known, not just on health status and survival, but also on treatment patterns. Health systems that pride themselves on universality should be concerned if people are being effectively discriminated against due to location, socio-economic, financial or racial factors. From a research, policy and practice perspective, it is not enough to know what works for the average patient with the average specialist, but who receives what treatment, where, when and why and, importantly, why not.Hall, S 2012, 'Quality and equity in cancer care: how can we be sure?', Austral-Asian Journal of Cancer, vol. 11, no 2 , pp.77-78.TBA Research Grant.en-ausC2 - Other refereed contribution to a scholary journalNot HERDC EligibleTBA.ANZSRC (2008) : Type of Activity (TOA)anzsrctoa920102 Cancer and Related Disorders.ANZSRC (2008) : Socio-economic objective (SEO)anzsrcseo920204 Evaluation of Health Outcomes.ANZSRC (2008) : Socio-economic objective (SEO)anzsrcseo920208 Health Inequalities.ANZSRC (2008) : Socio-economic objective (SEO)anzsrcseo111799 Public Health and Health Services not elsewhere classified.ANZSRC (2008) : Fields of Research (FOR)anzsrcfor111204 Cancer Therapy (excl.
