Quality-assured treatment in certified cancer center networks in upper Franconia, Germany: a population-centered retrospective cohort analysis based on data of the Bavarian cancer registry
We found meaningful differences in the proportion of patients who received quality-assured treatment in certified cancer center networks. Following this, patients should receive comprehensive information about receiving care in certified cancer center networks and consider longer travel distances, especially for those cancer types without locally available certified cancer networks.
