Recommendations for Cancer-related Health Services and Policy Research
CCRA has published a series of recommendations on cancer-related health services and policy research, which reflect consultations held during 2020-21 led by Dr. Terry Sullivan. We are indebted to the many experts who contributed their time and provided thoughtful input into this process! This foundational work was supported by the Canadian Cancer Society, Canadian Partnership Against Cancer, CIHR Institute of Cancer Research, Genome Canada, and the Ontario Institute for Cancer Research. The recommendations are currently being used to guide implementation planning led by Shift Health on behalf of CCRA. You can access the report here.
