Disparities in receipt of palliative‐intent treatment among disaggregated Hispanic populations with breast, lung, and prostate cancer in the United States
These findings demonstrate disparities in the receipt of palliative-intent interventions among disaggregated Hispanic subgroups. This study highlights the need for disaggregated research to further characterize these disparities and their drivers. Community-level and patient-centric efforts may help to address these inequities.
